This looks so good Marilyn! Alfredo sauce is my favorite, but can be too rich for my tummy, so will try your recipe for sure. Thank you.

Val, thanks so much for commenting! This recipe is so healthy, yet the sauce isn’t thin. You can’t even tell it was made with yogurt and cauliflower. If the garlic bothers you ( I love it but sometimes it upsets my tummy), you can cut the garlic, or substitute garlic powder or garlic chives. That is me secret!
