    Really Stinkin' Easy Garlic Mashed Cauliflower - got this one from Paleo Comfort Foods, by Julie and Charles Mayfield

    1 head of cauliflower, cut into smallish chunks
    1 cup of chicken stock
    1/4 tsp black pepper
    2 cloves of garlic, crushed

    Place all ingredients in a medium saucepan or Dutch oven and bring to a boil. Once it's boiling, reduce heat and cover, allowing to cook for about 20 minutes, or until the cauliflower is very tender and easily mashed with a fork. Pay attention to the amount of stock you have - it may be necessary to add more if it's all dried up before the cauliflower is ready. If there is still some liquid remaining, you can just strain it off. Place everything in a food processor use an immersion blender to mash. It is delicious!
