Instructions:

1. Prepare the Cauliflower:

   In a large pot, bring water to a boil. Add the cauliflower florets and cook until very tender, about 8-10 minutes. Drain well.

2. Cook the Turkey:

   While the cauliflower is cooking, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground turkey and garlic (if using), breaking it apart with a spoon. Cook until the turkey is browned and cooked through, about 7-10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and set aside.

3. Mash the Cauliflower:

   Return the drained cauliflower to the pot or a large bowl. Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, and the broth. Mash the cauliflower with a potato masher or blend with an immersion blender until it reaches a smooth consistency. For extra creaminess, you can add the Parmesan cheese at this step.

4. Combine:

   Once the cauliflower is mashed to your liking, fold in the cooked ground turkey until well combined. Adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed.

5. Serve:

Serve the turkey and cauliflower mash warm. Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or chives for a touch of color and flavor, if desired.
