Cauliflower Alfredo Sauce

This Cauliflower Alfredo Sauce is a creamy, low-calorie alternative to traditional Alfredo, featuring tender cauliflower blended with garlic and feta cheese for a savory, velvety sauce that’s both nutritious and delicious.

For a Serving Size of Two:

Ingredients:

  • 150 grams cauliflower florets
  • 1 minced garlic clove
  • 15 grams feta cheese
  • 120 ml milk
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper,
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

Procedure:

  1. In a pot, bring water to a boil and add the cauliflower florets. Cook for 8-10 minutes until very tender. Drain and set aside.
  2. In a pan, heat olive oil over medium heat and sauté the minced garlic until fragrant (about 1 minute). Be careful not to brown the garlic.
  3. In a blender, combine cooked cauliflower, sautéed garlic, cheese, milk, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy. Adjust milk quantity if needed for desired consistency.
  4. Pour the blended mixture back into the pan and heat gently. Stir in nutmeg, if desired. Serve hot over pasta or as a creamy vegetable sauce.

Nutritional Benefits:

  • Cauliflower Alfredo Sauce is a wholesome, lighter version of the classic, providing fiber, vitamin C, and potassium from cauliflower. This low-carb vegetable is packed with antioxidants that promote cellular health and aid digestion.
  • Olive oil and cheese offer a dose of healthy fats and protein, adding depth of flavor and richness. The garlic and cauliflower also have anti-inflammatory and heart-health benefits, making this sauce not only satisfying but also a nutritious choice for pasta lovers.
