    Add cheese, onion and a little garlic to mashed cauliflower and it's pretty darn good. I've also added a small amount of actual potato (about 4 parts cauliflower to 1 part potato) and it is still lower carb and adds potato taste to the cauliflower.

      People think I'm compensating when I say I prefer Linda Sue's Just Like Stuffed Baked Potatoes, Cauliflower dish to actual mashed potato. I will eat twiced baked at my friends family thanks giving cuz his mom is very proud of it, but I don't eat mashed any other time. It's not that great and I love cauliflower. I put it in soup, I put it in curry,I roast it and eat it, with all the toppings a potato wishes it had... and it's not gluey like potatoes can get.

      ​@@erinjohnson7504I really like mashed cauliflower, and I fix it much like your suggestion, but your idea of adding a small amount of potato to the mix is a good suggestion. You just count the daily carbs you are consuming.

    I have been using turnips as a replacement for potatoes in several ways. As a potato salad as
    an au gratin I will make an Italian sausage with sliced turnips. I have even used thinly sliced turnips in lasagna not by best or worst idea but I have switched to Lavish bread my favorite way is to make hash browns with them ad zucchini red peppers mushrooms and onions add diced up sausage or corned beef by eating a low carb. Not keto but pretty low I have totally cut out pasta bread potatoes and other high starch foods over a couple of years I have lost 135 lbs and dropped my A1C from 8.1 to a 5.0 on my A1C test earlier this week. I also lost enough weight to get a knee replacement a few weeks ago. So I am a fan of Turnips

    The egg mash potatoes is way too complicated.... I'm glad I love cauliflower mash potatoes... so simple and tasty

    • @Metqa
      @Metqa Год назад +3

      It's actually simpler than it appears as a process, it just has a lot of ingredients. IF you were to measure the ingredients for the blender first and set it aside, (I toasted a half cup of the gelatin powder in advanced while waiting for something else to cook ) , Then all you are really doing is cooking scrambled egg whites till slightly over cooked and tossing them into a blender. In fact, if you have a high powered blender, I think it would come together easier. My hardest task was convincing my Walmart $20 not to give up the ghost. I had to half it into 2 batches to get it blended. ( since I'm single I'll prolly make half batches from now on) but the end result was so close to mashed potato I didn't believe it and am still skeptical each time I eat it and it's not gross.
      To be fair, I came to realize I don't like mash potato all that much anymore so it is not a big WIN for me for just eating on it's own, though it was good enough for that, but if I ever decided to make a beef stew, I could definately see a place for the egg white mashed potato. Especially since reheating it is a bit of a challenge, I think I'd be making half batches of this as a single person. Any reheating too quickly and it reverts back to scrambled egg, delicious but egg texture. I heated it in the micrwave for 15 sec at a time and stirred between heatings till it was serving temperature. as an experiment, I heated 10 seconds more after eating temp, and that is when it coagulated back to scrambled egg.

      @nataliajimenez1870 11 месяцев назад

      ​@@MetqaChris recommends not adding the egg white powder to the stuff you are planning to refrigerate since it makes reheating harder and to just be gentle when reheating , adding a little cream. I've reheated them using a double boiler

  • @eyebrid
    @eyebrid Год назад +2

    I steamed garlic bulbs for about 10 minutes and mashed with butter and it was surprisingly close to mashed potatoes. It has to get to a point of just being cooked but not too mushy, there's a threshold where the garlic flavor gets muted but comes back if you cook too long.
    Serious Keto made some good roasted potatoes out of red radishes, so if you combine them with steamed garlic and maybe sour cream and cream cheese you might get great results.

  • @winegoddess55
    @winegoddess55 Год назад +1

    I love potatoes! But as a diabetic on a low carb diet, it is hard to put much potato in my daily food intake. One youtuber said to try cooking red radishes and blend with butter and cream; I tried it, and its ok. Your first two suggestions look like something I will try, but that third one is just too much bother for my lazy self, lol! Another video said that when you cook your potatoes in the microwave, then let them cool, they have a much lower glycemic index. So I have tried that too, just because potatoes are so yummy. Thanks for the great suggestions! 😀

      Remember, Chris’ recipe still has carbs. That’s the recipe I made in the video - egg whites, cheeses, sour cream, heavy cream still have carbs. It comes to 1.8 g carbs per 1/2 cup serving. Still less than using a turnip, which is about 5 carbs. My favorite was mashed turnips - tastes the closest to mashed potatoes.

I put it in a saucepan and add in a few heaping tablespoons of Victoria's keto flour 2.0, a little heavy cream and butter. Sometimes a little cheese, sour cream and chives. I also make mock potato pancakes by adding 4 eggs, 1/3 cup keto flour, 2 tsp onion powder, 1 scant tbs of baking powder and S&P to taste. I fry them till the edges turn brown then flip them. My family loves them. I’m starting to find many ways to use this product. I’m definitely going to look into adding a little toasted beef gelatin to see if it boosts that potato flavor. But honestly you can’t get any easier than that.

    Years ago, waaay before I went keto, I used to make mashed turnips about as often as I made mashed potatoes. I liked them, my ex-husband didn't - until the day I added a drop (literally) of yellow food coloring to the turnips to make them less snowy white and more potato colored. Then he didn't even realize. Sort of funny, mostly annoying. They don't taste quite the same, but close enough especially where you're using them as a base under a main dish. Or smothered with gravy.
    Now? I actually like mashed cauliflower, too. But I frequently use a head of cauliflower (cored and cut up) and a couple of turnips but into small chunks. I got the idea from Maria Emmerich but her recipe was made in a crockpot and had a couple of other ingredients. I just cook it all in the stove like any mashed potatoes. 🤷🏼‍♀️
