Shrimp Cauliflower Mash Bowl
This Shrimp Cauliflower Mash Bowl is a great meal for those who are on the low-carb diet. Also it’s ready in less than 30 minutes, easy and quick to make and very flavourful!
When I thought about making this cauliflower mash I mentioned it to my husband, but he told me he didn’t believe it was going to taste good. Since I wanted try anyway and I made it the other day and I’m glad to say that I wasn’t disappointed. And even my husband who is such a picky eater enjoyed this cauliflower mash. He even loved this Low-Carb Turkey Meatballs with Mashed Cauliflower recipe! It looks like mashed potatoes, the texture is also similar to mashed potatoes and the addition of garlic, butter, salt, pepper makes this cauliflower mash very flavourful.
I believe this recipe is perfect for those who love mash potatoes, but it’s trying to follow the low-carb diet. I know cauliflower doesn’t taste like potatoes, however this cauliflower mash is actually pretty tasty and makes a great combo with the shrimp in a tomato sauce. This recipe is great if you have only few minutes to make a healthy and delicious meal for your family. Still want mashed potatoes? Make my Creamy Mashed Potatoes Recipe with the shrimp. Roasted Butternut Squash Mash and Creamy Savory Mashed Sweet Potatoes are also a delicious alternative to mashed potatoes as well!
It’s ready in less than 30 minutes. You just need to boil the cauliflower and blend it with butter, milk, garlic and seasonings. And for the shrimp… Well do I need to say that in 5-6 minutes shrimp is cooked?!! You just need to sauté shrimp and when it’s pink you add the homemade tomato sauce. You can make the sauce on the weekend and leave it in the fridge to use during the week. Or you can buy the tomato sauce from a brand that you trust, making this recipe even faster to be done! Enjoy!
