Smashed Cauliflower with Horseradish

This is such a simple recipe that only requires two ingredients: cauliflower and cream-style horseradish. You can make this side dish as mild or as hot as you choose and you can easily double, or triple this recipe. I think it's really a nice change from plain ol' mashed potatoes.

Yield: 2 servings

1 head cauliflower, cored and cut into florets
1 tsp. cream-style horseradish (located in the condiment aisle), plus more to taste
Salt and pepper, to taste

Place cauliflower in a large pot and cover completely with cold water. Bring to a low boil over medium heat and cook until fall-apart tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain cauliflower and return to the pot. Smash with a the back of a wooden spoon , or potato masher,  until it's the consistency of slightly chunky mashed potatoes. Season with salt, pepper, and horseradish.
