    Ingredients
    * 1 large head cauliflower (yields about 1.5 pounds of florets)
    * 2 tablespoons butter
    * 2 ounces cream cheese, softened
    * 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
    * salt and pepper to taste

    Equipment
    * Steamer basket
    * Instant pot or large pot with lid

    Instructions

    Steam the cauliflower florets
    * Add about 1 inch of water and a steamer basket to a large pot with a lid. Add the cauliflower florets to the steamer basket and heat over high heat, until the water begins to boil. Reduce to a simmer and cover with the lid. Cook until the cauliflower is very soft, about 7-10 minutes.�
    * Alternatively, add 1 cup of water, steamer basket, and then the cauliflower to the instant pot. Close the lid, set the valve to sealing, and cook under high pressure for 5 minutes. When the time is up, quick release the pressure and remove the lid when the pin drops.�
    Make the keto mashed potatoes (see notes for a thicker mash)
    * Food processor: To the food processor cup add the steamed cauliflower, butter, cream cheese, and grated parmesan. Pulse until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.�
    * Immersion blender: Add the cauliflower florets to a large mixing bowl. Use the immersion blender to mash the florets. stir in the remaining ingredients and season with salt and pepper to taste.�
    Notes
    * Thicker mash: This cauliflower mash is really creamy. If you would like a thicker mash, you can add the cauliflower florets to a tea towel or nut milk bag after steaming (make sure the cauliflower is cool enough to handle) and squeeze out some of the liquid.
    * Cauliflower: Frozen cauliflower can be used, but frozen may yield really loose keto mashed cauliflower. Frozen would not take as long to cook because it is pre-cooked before freezing. Fresh or frozen cauliflower rice would require a different cooking method.
    * Storage: in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
