Preparation

Step 1

In a large pot of water, boil the cauliflower florets for about 15-20 minutes or until fork tender. Do not drain! Keep the broth for later =)
In a small pan, pan fry the onions, garlic, olive oil, and bouillon cubes until the onions are translucent and the garlic is fragrant.
Once cooked, use a slotted spoon to take out the cauliflower and puree both the cauliflower and onions in a food processor.
Add cheese, and broth until it reaches your desired pasta-sauce consistency (I added about 1 cup).
Add salt and pepper to taste and use it over pasta, risotto, as a white sauce on pizza, heck, even add a bit of extra broth to make it a white gravy!
