CHEESY MASHED CAULIFLOWER RECIPE (CAULIFLOWER MASH)

INGREDIENTS

• 1 large head cauliflower
• 1 tablespoon table salt
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter divided

• 2/3 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

2. Fill a Dutch oven or stockpot 2/3rd full of water and bring it to a boil over medium-high heat.
