Whipped Fauxtatoes
2 heads cauliflower, florets cut into small pieces (i like to make a big batch)
1/4c chicken stock
skim milk (just a splash or two)
i cant believe its not butter spray
popcorn seasoning in white cheddar flavor
sea salt
pepper
garlic powder
dried chives (these literally make any recipe taste better)
Boil cauliflower in a large pot with water, salt, and chicken stock until very soft. Cook them longer than you normally would, that's the trick to getting a smooth whipped potato texture. Drain the cauliflower and place in a food processor. Add salt, splash of skim milk, pepper, and garlic powder. Blend in processor until creamy. Then add I can't believe its not butter spray, white cheddar seasoning, dried chives, and more spray butter, salt, pepper, .garlic powder to taste, adding another splash of skim if needed. Pulse until smooth.
I make my soup per the package instruction, maybe adding a little more water. Before I add the water I put salt, garlic powder, white cheddar seasoning and dried chives into the packet and shake it up with the water, microwaving for 2 mins. Then just add in some heated whipped fauxtatoes and you have delicious, thick and creamy broccoli cheddar soup.
I'm sure someone has tried this but I thought I would pass this one along!
