Description

Ingredients

• 1 head of cauliflower (about 4-5 cups was all I got from mine)
• 6 cups vegetable broth (or water, but the broth is yummier)
• 4 tblspn minced garlic
• 1 small onion, minced
• 3 tblspn vegan buttery sticks (I like Earths Best the best--heh)
• ⅓ cup coconut milk (or more, if you want your sauce thinner--I do not)
• ¼ tspn basil (just a pinch)
• ¼ tspn oregano (you know what I mean)
• salt and papper to taste

Directions

• In an adequately sized pot, place the vegetable broth and cauliflower over medium-to-high heat.
• Bring to a boil for 5-10 mintues or until the cauliflower is super-tender.
• While thats boiling, place the vegan buttery stick, onion and garlic in a pan over high heat.
• You want the onion and garlic to cook just long enough that they get good and hot--and smell great. Then take them off. If you cook them too long, it will kill the yummy flavor of the cauliflower.
• Remove the cauliflower from the broth, but save the broth.
• Place cauliflower, ½ cup broth, garlic-onion-buttery stick mixture, basil, oregano and coconut milk into your Ninja food processor.
• Blend, baby, blend. For like 5 mintues. Or pulse it. Whatever floats your boat to get that combination smooth, smooth, smooth. It took me a while. And, even then, it was a little lumpier than I would have liked, but my Ninja is old (can someone say Santa?).
• Remove, taste, add salt and pepper, as necessary.
• Serve hot over your favorite pasta...mmmmm...
