This mashed potato substitute is made with mashed cauliflower. This dish is a healthier, low-carb version of America's obsession with mashed potatoes. It may sound odd, but try it!

2 pounds cauliflower, cut into 1-inch pieces
¼ cup heavy cream
⅓ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
¼ cup unsalted butter
¼ cup reduced-fat cream cheese
1 teaspoon sea salt

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add cauliflower and reduce heat to medium. Cook cauliflower until very tender, about 10 minutes; drain, shaking the colander to remove as much water as possible.
Place cauliflower in a blender and pour in cream. Blend until smooth, then transfer mixture to a large pot over low heat.
