If using the Instant Pot wash and peel potatoes, followed by washing the cauliflower. I know your heart just stopped because I peeled the potatoes but this is after all a lazy version of mashed potatoes. Add the water to the instant pot then place the steamer basked followed by the potatoes and cauliflower. If you do not desire a potent cauliflower flavor add only 4 ounces of cauliflower. Place the instant pot on steam for 10 minutes. If you are using a stovetop simmer the potatoes with the peel on them for 20 minutes. Add the cauliflower at the 20 minute mark and boil for 10 minutes or until fork tender. Cooking times will vary based on where you are located.
Once the potatoes are ready drain the water, add the entire bag of vegan mozzarella and the stick of butter.
Use an immersion blender or potato masher to make them silky and fluffy. I did this inside the instant pot so they could stay warm.
When you are ready to enjoy add the potato mixture to a serving dish, or not and garnish if desired with chives, additional butter and salt and pepper if desired.
