Creamy cauliflower sauce – vegan white sauce for pasta

August 17, 2016 by Emma 4 Comments

We are pasta lovers in our house. Perhaps it’s the Sicillian hertiage from my husband’s side?! Either way, we probably eat our body weight in the stuff each year. We all have our favourite toppings – tuna for J, arrabiata for me and alfredo sauce for Mr C. That’s where this creamy cauliflower sauce comes in.

Unforunately, alfredo sauce is a bit of a dairy deluge so we have been experimenting with different alternatives. You can just make it using dairy free milk and spread but it does miss out on some of the creaminess.

This creamy cauliflower sauces makes a great dairy free and vegan white sauce for pasta. #dairyfree #dairyfreewhitesauce #cauliflowersauce #veganwhitesauce

Creamy cauliflower sauce – vegan, dairy free white sauce for pasta

Step in the cauliflower! Yes, I know it doesn’t seem like the likely candidate but this creamy cauliflower sauce is thick healthy and well, creamy! It is a great way to sneak in another vegetable into your chldren’s diet too.

Our version is garlic free because of J but you could add some if you fancy. It would be nice with some nutritional yeast too if you wanted a more cheesey flavour.
