  • Remove from heat, and transfer to blender.
  • When cauliflower is tender, drain the water out, and then add cauliflower to the blender.
  • Heat almond milk over medium-low heat in the used skillet for about 4-5 minutes, stirring constantly, and then add to blender along with remaining two tablespoons of olive oil.
  • Secure lid to blender tightly, and blend contents on high until smooth.

  • Make a family friendly meal by adding the sauce to a baked casserole, like White Lasagna or Chicken Alfredo Bake.
