Recipe: Garlicky Cauliflower-Potato Mash

Many recipes these days are swapping cauliflower entirely for other carbohydrate sources. While it certainly has a lovely versatility that works well in many dishes, we like the idea of using it as an add-on rather than a substitution. Enjoy the lovely richness of creamy potatoes combined with the light texture of cauliflower in this mash mix-up that is rich in potassium, fiber, and vitamin C. When it comes to nutrition, adding instead of subtracting is always a great approach.
