Steps:

The sauce was a bit too thick for my liking, but the flavor was good. I'll try thinning it out with some milk next time.

This recipe was a bit too time-consuming for me. I had to chop the cauliflower and cook it separately from the sauce. I would have preferred a one-pot recipe.

I love how this dish is lighter than traditional Alfredo, but still has all the flavor. I used almond milk instead of heavy cream and it turned out great. Definitely a keeper!
