  1. 1

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the cauliflower florets (12 ounces) and boil until fork tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and place the cauliflower in a blender. Add the vegan parmesan (0.5 cup), extra-virgin olive oil (0.25 cup), garlic cloves (2 clove), dijon mustard (0.5 tsp), plant butter (3 tbsp), fresh lemon juice (2 tbsp), sea salt (1 tsp), and several grinds of [freshly ground black pepper].

  2. 2

    Add reserved pasta cooking water (1 cup) to the blender and blend the sauce until creamy.

  3. 3

    As you toss your alfredo sauce with pasta, you may want to add the additional reserved pasta cooking water (0.5 cup) to loosen the sauce.
