Pork and Cauliflower-Potato Mash
Maybe you are not ready to get rid of your potatoes just yet, so I thought this recipe where the mashed potatoes have cauliflower in them might be a great place to start.
I saw this recipe and it used steak but I had pork in the fridge so that was what I used. This goes together rather quickly.
We loved the potatoes and cauliflower mash. My husband even liked them and he is my meat and potato guy. Hope you like it too.
