A healthy, low-carb alternative to mashed potatoes. They're light and creamy with a sweet, nutty note from the garlic.

step 4
Cover the pot and bring the water to a boil. Cook cauliflower until very tender (so that when you pierce it with a knife it goes in and comes out easily without catching), about 10 minutes.
step 5
Transfer cauliflower to a food processor. Squeeze the individual cloves of roasted garlic into the cauliflower. Add the Fresh Thyme (2 tsp) and secure the lid on the food processor.
