Alfredo sauce

Ingredients

  • 4 cups (14 ounces) of raw cauliflower florets
  • 2 cups of unsweetened gluten-free oat milk, or low-fat milk
  • 2 tablespoons (tbsp) of vegan butter
  • 1 tablespoon of minced garlic (about 2 to 3 cloves)
  • ½ teaspoon (tsp) of onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon (tsp) of kosher or sea salt
  • ⅛ teaspoon (tsp) of ground black pepper
  • 1 cup of mozzarella-style shreds, or low-fat shredded mozzarella
  • ¼ cup of nutritional yeast
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons (tbsp) of fresh lemon juice

Directions

  • Place cauliflower, milk, butter, garlic, onion powder, salt, and pepper in a small saucepan.
  • Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
  • Cover, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer 15 minutes or until the cauliflower is fall-apart tender.
  • During the last 5 minutes, add mozzarella shreds and nutritional yeast.
  • Transfer to a high-speed blender.
  • Start on low speed and gradually increase speed. Blend until smooth, about 30 seconds. Or you can leave in the saucepan and blend with a handheld blender.
  • Stir in the lemon juice.

Notes

If preparing a day ahead, allow sauce to cool, transfer to a container, cover and refrigerate.
