Ingredients

• 1 cup Fat-Free cottage cheese
• 1/2 cup Nonfat Plain Greek yogurt
• 1/2 cup grated Publix Reduced Fat Parmesan Style Cheese
• 3 Cloves Garlic, minced
• 1/2 tsp Onion Powder
• Salt and black pepper, to taste
• 1 cup Cooked and Pureed Cauliflowerr
• 1 tablespoon chopped Fresh parsley (optional)

Instructions

1. Prepare the pureed cauliflowe: Steam or boil until it's soft and tender. Drain any excess liquid, set it aside and let it cool for a few minutes. Puree the cauliflower using a blender, food processor, or immersion blender until smooth. You may need to add a little of the excess liquid back in to make it smooth and creamy.

2. In a blender or food processor, combine the fat-free cottage cheese, fat-free Greek yogurt, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, onion powder, and the cauliflower puree. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

3. Taste the sauce and season with salt and black pepper, adjusting as needed.

4. Pour the blended sauce mixture into the saucepan and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes, or until heated through. If the sauce becomes too thick as it heats, you can add a bit more of the excess liquid from earlier to thin it out.

5. Remove the saucepan from the heat and serve over your choice of pasta, vegetables or protein!

Notes

Finish with fresh parsley if you would like!
