This warm, comforting mixture is a delicious change of pace from mashed potatoes. Serve with a vegetarian mushroom gravy for a health-supportive update of a classic favorite!
Serves 2
1/4 cup minced onion
1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup millet, rinsed
1 cup water
1 cup chopped cauliflower
pinch sea salt
Heat the oil in a medium saucepan. Add onion and sauté until translucent. Add millet and toast slightly. Add cauliflower, salt, and water. Cover pot and cook until grain has absorbed all the water, about 10 to 20 minutes. When the millet is done, mash the mixture together with a potato masher. Add a little water if necessary in order to get a smooth consistency.
