Description

Instead of carb-heavy mashed potatoes, try this ranch-flavored mashed cauliflower recipe, made in the Instant Pot® in just 30 minutes--your family may never know the difference.

Ingredients

1 head cauliflower, cut into big chunks
1 cup chicken broth
3 ounces cream cheese
3 tablespoons sour cream
2 tablespoons salted butter, softened
1 1/2 tablespoons dry ranch dressing mix

Directions

1 Place cauliflower on a trivet in a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®). Add chicken broth; close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 4 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
2 Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid.
3 While pressure is releasing, mix cream cheese, sour cream, butter, and ranch dressing mix together in a small bowl.
4 Transfer cauliflower to a large bowl. Add cream cheese mixture and toss to combine. Puree with an immersion blender until smooth and creamy.
