Servings: 2 cups

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups steamed cauliflower florets
  • ⅓ - ½ cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 2 cloves roasted garlic or 1 clove raw garlic minced
  • 1 Tablespoon nutritional yeast
  • 1 Tablespoon olive or avocado oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground pepper

Instructions

  • Steam cauliflower: Steam cauliflower if you haven’t already.
  • Blend: Place steamed cauliflower, 1/3 cup almond milk, roasted garlic, nutritional yeast, oil, salt and pepper into a blender. Blend until smooth. You want the sauce to be kind of thick (like traditional alfredo sauce), but not too thick so add a bit more milk, if needed. Taste and season with additional salt and pepper, if needed.
  • Enjoy: Use a sauce for pasta, roasted veggies or veggie noodles.
  • Store: Sauce will keep for 3-5 days in an airtight container in the fridge. It may thicken as it sits so feel free to add a little more almond milk when reheating.
