Yields8 ServingsPrep Time5 minsCook Time20 minsTotal Time25 mins
3.50cupscauliflower florets (riced cauliflower does NOT work very well in this recipe)
0.5-1 tbsp garlic powder (to taste)

2-2.5 cups unsweetened non-dairy milk (I recommend Good Karma unsweetened Flax Milk --- NOT the protein flax milk)
pepper to taste

1
Steam cauliflower florets in a steamer until tender.
**** Note that riced cauliflower does not work as well in this recipe because they do not dissolve in the food processor/blender as easily as steamed cauliflower florets. ***
2
Add steamed cauliflower to food processor or blender. Add fresh lemon juice, garlic powder, salt and pepper to taste.
3
Add 2 cups of non-dairy milk to food processor or blender. Blend on low. If you want a thinner sauce, add another 0.5 cups of non-dairy milk. Blend until smooth.
