    Just made this. It was good!! I won't lie and say it exactly tasted like alfredo sauce... but it was definitely tasty on some rotini :) And for a fraction of the calories, I really can't complain.

    I divided the recipe by 4 and used it as a single serving, worked perfectly.

    Looks amazing! My brother recently made a vegan cream sauce using coconut cream. Maybe that could be subbed in?

    Fettuccine alfredo is one of my biggest downfalls, temptations, and guilty pleasures. I can't wait to try this!

    I am so sick of these FOOD HIPSTERS!! lol!, yeah I said it!, that's what you guys are!! "faw faw!, my food and food choices are far superior to your food and food choices, I am soo much better and more educated on the matter of food than you are...blah blah snarkity-snark!!, lets go and spread our awesomeness and debase these lesser mortals in their silly posts!!"
    Ok YESSS, there is the original Alfredo sauce, which is delicious, I don't think the OP is denying that, or telling people NOT to eat it, she simply found a recipe that cuts the calories-WHAT?!, people try to cut calories on here?!, of all the ridiculous things!..LOL!.

    To those who don't understand why the cauliflower is in there:
    Olive oil, and milk have quite a bit of calories, so if you use LESS of the calorie rich ingredients and SUBSTITUTE using a lower calorie ingredient (cauliflower), this "FILLER" ingredient reduces the over all calories in a serving!!, it's pretty simple people!, also the cauliflower adds thickness to the sauce, as milk is runnier than cream!, any creamy sauce is made either with cream, or a "Bechamel" type of sauce which consists of flour, butter and milk to make the creamy consistency, all of which have way more calories..

    Some of you might not like to reduce calories in this way, and that is fine!, but to crap on someone else's recipe and to debase it of any value is ridiculous!, who the hell do you think you are?!, LOL!.
    I for one like to scrimp and save some cals so that I can eat more!, I also exercise, and I eat calorie reduced and non calorie reduced foods too, it all depends on what I feel like eating, and what fills my daily calorie allowance...to each his/her own darnittt!!!!

    THANKS OP for the recipe!!!, I'm sure it will be a life changer to some!!.

    Alfredo has 2 ingredients, butter and parm. Seeing as cauliflower is nothing like parm or butter, it is not a logical substitution. Just because it is white does not make it alfredo

    So what? (even if this were true, which it's not.) Cooked caulflower can actually be like a lot of things. and if fulfills people's desire for Alfredo in a more nutritious and low-calorie way, what is your problem with it? It's called alfredo because most people will then recognize it as a low-cal recipe that can substitute for alfredo. Why has all logic abandoned so many snobbish, know-it-all people around MFP?
