One of the hardest things to give up when you are on the keto diet is potatoes. Coming up with side dishes can be difficult but we have perfected the cauliflower mashed to replace your mashed potatoes. When paired with meat, you can make a good gravy by using xanthan gum to thicken up any drippings from the meat.
This goes well if you are making roast turkey or roast chicken.
Add some bacon bits, chives and cheese of your choice to turn this into a loaded mashed cauliflower side.
