Ingredients

• 1 head cauliflower
• 2 tablespoons ghee
• 2 units garlic cloves
• 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon pepper
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Begin by cleaning the cauliflower. Remove the leaves and stem, and cut the cauliflower into florets.

Step 2

In a large pot, add the cauliflower florets and enough water to cover them. Bring to a boil over high heat.

Step 3

Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium, cover, and allow the cauliflower to cook for about 10 minutes or until it's very tender.

Step 4

While the cauliflower is cooking, peel and mince the garlic cloves.

Step 5

In a small saucepan, melt the ghee over medium-low heat. Add the minced garlic and saute for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Remove from heat.

Step 6

Drain the cauliflower thoroughly and place it in a food processor or blender.

Step 7

Add the melted ghee with garlic, almond milk, salt, and pepper to the cauliflower in the processor.

Step 8

Blend the ingredients on high until the cauliflower puree is very smooth and creamy. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides of the bowl a few times.

Step 9

Taste the puree and adjust the seasoning if necessary.

Step 10

Transfer the puree to a serving bowl, garnishing with freshly chopped parsley.

Step 11

Serve immediately as a side dish to your main Whole30 meal.
