I substituted this cauliflower recipe for mashed potatoes as a low-carb alternative, and my husband said it was "rockin' good." Flavors of Parmesan, garlic, and chives brought cauliflower to a new level and we didn't miss the potatoes. This goes well with a nice grilled steak or London broil.
1 (16 ounce) package frozen cauliflower
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives or more to taste
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan-Reggiano cheese
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Preheat your oven to 400℉. Add cauliflower to a large pot and cover base with a few inches of water. Steam cauliflower for about 4-5 minutes, just until it's soft enough to smash but still undercooked. Not mushy! I'd stay close to the pot and keep checking. Once done, drain and pat dry.
