· 1 tsp minced onion flakes (optional)

Рeat oven to 375°F. Cook cauliflower until it is done than drain wel, add all other ingredients except cream and mix in a powerful mixer. Add cream slowly and mix again.
Smear an ovenproof dish with cooking spray and pour mixture in. If you want an extra buttery potato add pats of extra butter or margarine on top. You can add a bit of paprika on top – it will gove a nice color. Bake for about 20 minutes until hot.
Makes 4-6 Servings. Each serving contains 5-7 net grams of carbohydrate.
In place cauliflower you can use turnips. Peel and dice turnips to very small pieces and cook it until it will become very soft. Use the method as with cauliflower. Turnips have a very potato taste so you would not guess anything. You can also add 2 oz Philadelphia Cream Cheese (softened) before adding to the mixer. Turnips have slightly less carbs than cauliflower and more fiber so there’s no worry about excess carbs.
