Clean Eating Alfredo Sauce

Question is- who doesn't love alfredo sauce??  Now, there’s a clean eating (dairy free) alternative that uses awesome whole, natural ingredients! No soy, either, if you’re wondering. Win win!! & Yum yum!

Ingredients:
  • 2 cups cauliflower
  • 1 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 cup cooked white beans
  • 1 large shallot
  • Juice from 1/2 lemon
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • red pepper flakes (optional)
Add cauliflower to pot of boiling water and boil until tender (a few mins).
Add 1 tbsp olive oil, sliced shallot and chopped garlic cloves to a pan. Heat until tender.
Add almond milk, beans, cauliflower, shallot, garlic, lemon juice, remaining 2 tbsp olive oil to blender. Blend until smooth.
Taste, add salt & pepper as needed, & blend again. I had to add a good amount of salt and pepper to get it to my liking. Be your own judge.
Pour over your favorite whole grain pasta, protein or veggies! Top with red pepper flakes, if desired.
Enjoy!
