So I don't do that oh yay its healthy let's pretend its what we really wanted to eat and not just fing nasty and depressing version of foods. I'd rather eat one bite of the real deal or chose a better option that fake out up. But real Alfredo just makes me sick these days and cauliflower was on sale at Aldi so I decided to try it out. And OMG its freaking Amazing!!!! And super cheap and easy. Pictures next time I promise!!
I looked up a recipe on-line and found this at Pinch of Yum. This girl seemed to definitely enjoy her food so I thought I'd take her advice and go with her recipe.
Get a head of cauliflower and break or cut off the florets. Break them down into smallish pieces and toss them in a big pot. (Keep the remains if you're cheap like me and make veggi broth after) Add 5-6 cups of water or vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Cook for about 7-10 minutes or until fork tender. In a skillet melt 2 tbsp of butter and sautee 8 cloves of minced garlic. Remove from heat and set aside when it just begins to brown.
Fish your cauliflower out of the water with a slotted spoon reserving the liquid. Toss your cauliflower in the blender. Add the garlic and butter. Add 1 cup of the cooking liquid from the cauliflower. A 1/2 cup of milk and about a tsp of salt and pepper. Turn on and puree the heck out of it. Boom Alfredo. Add as usual to pasta or whatever.
