I love mash potatoes, but sometimes I feel like taking a big nap after indulging in them. I decided to lighten my mash this time by forgoing the starchy potato and substituting it with broccoli and cauliflower. This mash was fabulous and I didn't have the crash and burn after eating them. So if you're going to eat some green food on St. Patrick's day... eat this. Tomorrow you will see what I made to go with this fabulous mash.
Ingredients:

4-5 cups broccoli florets
1 cup water (more as needed)
1 cup milk (or half and half)
2 Tbs butter
1 tsp granulated garlic
salt and black pepper to taste
1 cup cheddar cheese
Directions:
In a large pot or pan with a lid steam broccoli and cauliflower florets with one cup of water. Check to see if water evaporates and

Next add butter, granulated garlic, milk, salt and

Then add cheese and mash with a potato masher or a handheld blender for a more pureed mash. Serve as a side. Enjoy.
