Cauliflower Alfredo Sauce
(Originally published 5 July 2016 at https://cornfreehippie.com)
This Cauliflower Alfredo Sauce is versatile and so easy to make. An added bonus is that heating is not necessary; simply serve and enjoy. Not only is it paleo (Dairy-Free), but it is also vegan and can be nut-free too depending on the type of milk you use.
I have also steamed a bit of zucchini and cashews with the cauliflower to add depth to the flavor of this sauce. Another nice addition is to sauté crimini mushrooms and add them to the finished sauce.
If you are avoiding tomato sauce, this would be a wonderful pizza sauce with added Italian seasoning to taste. Try ou the recipe and have fun with how you serve it. Please leave a comment about your favorite experiments.
