Ingredients
  

  • 1 Head of White Cauliflower
  • 2 Tbs Olive Oil
  • 2 Cloves Garlic minced
  • 2 Tsp Fresh Rosemary chopped
  • 1 Tsp Dried Parsley
  • 1/2 Tsp Salt
  • Black Pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Bring a pot of water to boil. While the water is heating up, cut cauliflower into florets.
  • Add florets to the pot of boiling water, and boil for about 10 minutes, or until cauliflower is tender when pierced with a fork. Drain, and let cool.
  • In a pan, add in a drizzle of olive oil and bring to medium heat. Add in the garlic, rosemary, and parsley, and sauté until the garlic is fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
  • Add cauliflower florets, salt, black pepper, and olive oil (NOT the sautéed garlic and herbs) to a food processor. Process until the cauliflower is a smooth purée.
  • Once the cauliflower is smooth, add in the sautéed garlic and herbs, and process a few times until it's fully incorporated.
  • Serve, and enjoy!

Notes

You can add in the garlic and herbs to the food processor before you purée the cauliflower, but please note that it will give the cauliflower a green tint.
