Healthy Holiday Mashed Potatoes With Cauliflower Recipe

2 lb gold or red potatoes, scrubbed with a stiff brush (or peeled)
1 small head cauliflower, washed
1/4 cup low fat milk
1 Tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp minced fresh parsley
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp black pepper

Cut potatoes up into 2 to 3 inch chunks. Cut cauliflower up into 1 to 2 inch chunks.

Fill a large pot with cold water and bring to a gentle boil, then add the potatoes and cauliflower and let boil gently together until both veggies are tender - about 10 minutes. Do not boil rapidly or the potatoes will break up and get soggy.

Dump the veggies out into a colander and drain thoroughly, then return the veggies to the pot or to a mixing bowl.

Add the remaining ingredients to the veggies and either smash with a potato masher or use an electric beater to mash together until the potatoes and cauliflower mixture becomes smooth.

Serve as you would mashed or whipped potatoes.

Will serve 4 to 6.
