I’m so happy I figured out a way to use the huge bag of riced cauliflower I bought at Costco. This sauce is creamy and rich tasting without clogging arteries…. and as an added bonus, very easy to make. Great on veggies or whole grains, as well as pasta. Give it a try!!
Move over traditional Alfredo sauce, with more fat and calories than any human should consume, and make room for a vegan, oil-free Alfredo sauce made with cauliflower! Not only is it healthier without all that fat and oil/butter, you get a boost of nutrients from the cauliflower! It's very easy to make and truly delicious.

Recipe Notes
Cauliflower rice is popular in stores right now. If you can't find it, simply process cauliflower in food processor until small and crumbled, to about the size of rice.
Try using 1/2 cup of cashews instead of 3/4 to reduce the fat content.
I use about 3 cups per 16 oz bag of pasta, so you will likely have leftovers. This sauce is delicious over veggies or whole grains.
