Simplest Ever Cauliflower Alfredo Pasta

Hadn’t had this ultimate veggie-packed comfort food in so long, but I assure you the reunion was sweet (figuratively, of course). Especially because there were practically zero ingredients in this. I’m sure by now you’ve heard of cauliflower Alfredo sauce, but have you tried it? If not, take the plunge. You would never know there’s cauliflower in there, and neither will your kids. Just tastes like creamy goodness. And as always, very simple to whip up.
