Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 lbs Yukon gold potatoes (Peeled and Cubed)
  • 1 large head cauliflower (Cut into florets)
  • 1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup low sodium chicken broth

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  1. Simply place the potatoes in a large pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the pot, and simmer for about 15 minutes.
  2. Add the cauliflower florets and potatoes to the pot and continue cooking over low heat for an additional 9 minutes, until the cauliflower and potatoes are tender and easily pierced with a fork.
  3. Drain the water from the potatoes and cauliflower, then add them back to the pot they were cooked in.
  4. Pour in the milk, Greek yogurt, and chicken broth. Add the butter, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  5. Mix all ingredients using a hand mixer or electric blender until you get a smooth, creamy consistency, or use a potato masher.
