Skinny Alfredo Sauce

This recipe turned out great, didn't need to modify anything. It also made enough sauce for dinner all week. It's not quite the same as your super rich classic alfredo, but it's also not bad for you.

Ingredients
  • 1 head cauliflower, chopped
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/4 white onion or 2 shallots
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup fat free evaporated milk
  • 1/2 – 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
  • Salt and fresh black pepper
Directions
  1. Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Add the cauliflower and simmer for 20-25 minutes until the cauliflower is very tender.
  2. In a saute pan, add the olive oil and onions. Saute over medium heat for about 7 minutes until tender. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the evaporated milk and cook for 2 minutes.
  3. Add the cauliflower, onion mixture, Parmesan cheese, chicken broth, salt, and pepper to a blender. Blend until creamy and smooth.
