    Your welcome! It's amazing how good it is. People (including me) say,"Cauliflower? ... For Alfredo sauce?" but it really is good! I'm so glad you enjoyed it!

    In tried this recipe because I've just discovered zucchini noodles! So I tried this sauce over these noodles, wow!!! It was amazing!! Not at all like Alfredo but very good and nutritious. I will cut down on the garlic next time. It was a little much. Yield was 40 ounces!! - 9/1/16

    I made this recipe with high hopes. I am sorry but it was really, REALLY bad. It tasted like cauliflower over seasoned with red pepper. There was NO alfredo like taste at all. The texture was like cream of wheat. No one in my family would eat this. I had to throw it away and I hate wasting food. - 9/28/11

    That's too bad :( I know that everyone has different tastes. I'm not sure what type of food processor you used, but it definitely needs to be processed until it is smooth. I didn't have that experience of cream of wheat? But, I also like cream of wheat too lol so?
