Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- Cut cauliflower into florets and bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add cauliflower and boil for about 20 minutes, or until soft. Drain and set aside.
- In a saucepan over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot, add diced shallots and sauté until soft and caramelized, about 5-7 minutes.
- In your blender, combine cooked cauliflower, drained cannellini beans, non-dairy milk, sautéed shallots, and nutmeg. Blend until creamy, adjusting thickness with more milk if needed. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
- In the same pan used for shallots, add another splash of olive oil if needed. Toss in mushrooms, chopped kale, sun-dried tomatoes, and red pepper flakes. Sauté for about 5 minutes until kale wilts and mushrooms are tender.
- Prepare the pasta according to package instructions. Remember to save 1 cup of pasta water.
- In the pot used for pasta, combine cooked pasta with Alfredo sauce, stirring to coat evenly. Add a splash of pasta water if the sauce is too thick.
- If using, mix in the sautéed veggies and heat through, adding a splash of milk for moisture if it looks dry.
Storing Leftovers
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. Reheat on the stove with a little non-dairy milk to keep it creamy.
Notes
Make sure to blend the sauce until completely smooth. For a thicker sauce, sauté the cauliflower longer before blending.
