Mock Mashed Potato #recipe #LowCarb

Since I broke my low carb rules and made myself crave chocolate with Kacie Jo's Better Than Sex Cake recipe, I thought I'd share a healthier recipe today.
So far, I've lost 69 pounds in 17 months living a low carb lifestyle that includes a daily 30-minute walk as well.
These mock mashed potatoes have been LIFE SAVERS for me.
DH doesn't like them because of the consistency, but if I could figure that out, he says he would definitely eat them because they taste like mashed potatoes.
I LOVE THEM.

Pre-heat over to 350

5 cooked pieces of bacon, chopped up into back bits. (Can use store bought bits, but they're not as good).

1 bag frozen cauliflower, 1/2 stick butter. Microwave until cooked. Dump in food processor.
1 cube chicken broth and half a cup of water. Boil until broth dissolves. Dump in processor, mix a few seconds on low.
1 cream cheese brick, dump in processor, low until mixed.
1/4 C grated parmesan cheese and 1 TBSP cream cheese...sump and mix
1 C cheddar cheese split in halves...dump and mix 1/2. (optional)

Pour entire mix into an 8*8 pan. Mix in bacon bits. Top with 1/2 of cheddar. COver with foil and cook in over for 20 minutes.

Let rest!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This step in really important. They taste good here, but they are divine in five minutes.

Scoop and eat. :)

***You can add more broth and some half and half  or cream to taste and top with chives and this same recipe actually makes a GREAT mock baked potato soup. I puree the cauliflower a little more with that one.

YUM!!!!!!!!!!!!
