"Mock" Mashed Potatoes

Tonight I made "Mock" Mashed Potatoes. These were very tasty and I really couldn't tell they were not potatoes....they were made out of cauliflower. I did tweak it with omitting the butter. I adjusted the nutritional facts minus the butter.
Hope you ENJOY!

Ingredients
1 medium head cauliflower (I used frozen and micro)
1 tablespoon cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
1/8 teaspoon straight chicken base or bullion (may substitute 1/2 teaspoon salt)
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh or dry chives, for garnish
3 tablespoons unsalted butter (I DID NOT USE IT AND DID NOT MISS IT)
Directions
Set a stockpot of water to boil over high heat.
Clean and cut cauliflower into small pieces. Cook in boiling water for about 6 minutes, or until well done. Drain well; do not let cool and pat cooked cauliflower very dry between several layers of paper towels.
In a bowl with an immersion blender, or in a food processor, puree the hot cauliflower with the cream cheese, Parmesan, garlic, chicken base, and pepper until almost smooth.
Garnish with chives, and serve hot with pats of butter ~OMIT
Hint: Try roasting the garlic and adding a little fresh
rosemary for a whole new taste.
