Recipe Directions
- 1. Place all mashed potato ingredients into a food processor.
- 2. Process until creamy and smooth, similar in texture to the attached pictures. (Although you may be tempted to do so, do not add any additional liquid other than the 2 tablespoons of water. Also, if it seems difficult to process at the beginning, you may need to stop and scrape the sides a few times to help get it started.)
- 3. Enjoy your raw mashed potatoes!
The Rawtarian's Thoughts
By The Rawtarian A dollop of raw mashed "potatoes" on your plate turns an everyday meal into a festive feast! And, yes, that's cauliflower masquerading as potatoes since eating raw potatoes is a no-no. :)
This is a simple cauliflower-based mashed potato recipe that adds a nice heartiness to a fresh meal.
Use these raw mashed 'taters as part of a holiday feast or just treat yourself with a nice hearty serving of mashed potatoes for a fun weeknight dinner. I recently enjoyed these mashed cauliflower-based "potatoes" with a large green salad and traditional style corn (just chop some raw corn off a cob and you've got a side-serving of corn)--served all on one plate I felt like I was at Grandma's -- raw style of course!

Hi Beth,
Correct - raw potatoes are a no-no (alkaloids, etc) - do not juice either. Plus, the taste is starchy and unappealing :)

Raw mashed potatoes recipe
I love your website already. I've made cauliflower mashed potatoes before, but not completely raw. I was looking to add a few raw dished to our meal plan and you make it look tasty and simple.

Glad you enjoyed them, Ramona! Is there anything you'd change about the recipe?

Hey, would nutritional yeast work in this recipe as well? It sounds delicious, and I can't wait to try it!
Casey

I was wondering the same thing! I wanted to give them a little bit of a cheesy flavor, and thought that might work well with the cashews to do so!

Hy Casey and Catherine - I haven't tried it myself, but adding 1 tbsp of nut yeast couldn't hurt :)

Raw mashed potatoes recipe
I thought it was a great potato substitute. I used garlic powder instead of fresh garlic because I wanted a lighter garlic taste. My husband loved it.

This was delish!!! Love the garlic flavour! The cashews also added an interesting texture. :) I mixed it with a green salad and it was yum!

I like it a lot too, Sylvea. Add a side of sliced corn (straight off a raw cob) along with the green salad and it's an awesome meal.
Lol and by interesting texture, did you mean good interesting or bad interesting? ;)

My kids didn't like the garlic taste but I loved this recipe. I made a lot just wondering how long this will keep in the fridge?

It keeps really well in the fridge, perhaps 2-3 days, but it keeps really well and tastes very similar the next day.
Next time you can make it without the garlic if you like.

I just made these and it is absolutely delicious. I'm a garlic person so I added more garlic but it's so delicious. A new favorite. Thanks!!!
