Fettuccine Pasta With Cauliflower Garlic Cream Sauce

March 3, 2021 By Jessica Leave a Comment

This garlic cream sauce is so addicting. It’s made with simple ingredients and packs in an entire head of cabbage! Trust me, it is so grand! Feel good about what you’re putting on the table by serving it over Three Farm Daughters fettuccine pasta.

This post is sponsored by Three Farm Daughters. Per the usual, all opinions here are mine alone and I would never recommend an ingredient that I did not immensely enjoy myself. Thank you for supporting the brands that support SliceOfJess.com!

Garlic Cream Sauce

Elevate pasta night with his super delicious recipe, right here. With two young boys at home (ages two and five) it’s challenging to get them super excited about vegetables. Drumroll please… introducing to you this CAULIFLOWER garlic cream sauce. Seriously, your kiddos won’t even bat an eye! I guarantee that your munchkins are gonna love it. Other sneaky veggie-packed recipes you might like include my Gouda Air Fryer Eggplant Fries, BLT Flatbread Pizzas and my Baba Ganoush.

Garlic Cream Sauce

HOW TO MAKE THE PERFECT GARLIC CREAM SAUCE:

  1. Bring water to a boil in a large pot. Once the water is boiling, add a generous amount of kosher salt. The water will lift a little when you add the salt, so be sure to leave enough room for that. It’s important to add the salt AFTER your water has started to boil or it will score the bottom of your pot. 
  2. Boil cauliflower until fork tender. I prefer to boil our cruciferous friends for this recipe as it adds absolutely zero fat. We’ll be using a little heavy cream to pull it all together so let’s let the cream do its own magic. 
  3. Save a cup of pasta water. Pasta water is jam-packed with flavor and helps marry the sauce to the pasta. You’re going to use this in both the cream sauce and while marring the sauce to the pasta. 
  4. Add the parmesan straight to the cream sauce. This creates a cheesy, creamy texture that’s absolutely to die for. Any leftover sauce we serve on the side with crusty bread. Seriously, guaranteed smiles all around when you sop that up! 
  5. Toss the cream sauce with fettuccine pasta. This recipe makes enough sauce for one pound of pasta. You can easily double it if you need to feed heartier appetites. 
  6. Garnish with fresh herbs. I always recommend fresh herbs for a bright pop of freshness. Chopped Italian parsley or basil taste great with this recipe. 

Garlic Cream Sauce

Three Farm Daughters was founded by three sisters in 2020 with the vision of bringing better wheat from the fields to your personal pantry. Their pastas are high in fiber (11g of fiber per 2oz serving – 5x more fiber per serving than traditional pasta), higher in protein (9g per 2oz serving), lower calories (25% less than traditional). I’m not kidding when I say, my entire family is officially hooked! The taste is phenomenal, and the pasta turns out perfectly al dente every single time (and they don’t get soggy when reheating!). You can shop their amazing products here – and use my discount code sliceofjess for free shipping. Three Farm Daughters is also now available on Amazon.

This garlic cream sauce is so addicting. It's made with simple ingredients and packs in an entire head of cabbage! Trust me, it is so grand! Feel good about what you're putting on the table by serving it over Three Farm Daughters fettuccine pasta.
Serves: 8
Ingredients
  • 6 cups Cauliflower Florets
  • 5 Large Garlic Cloves, minced
  • 2 tbsp. Salted Butter
  • ½ cup Half & Half
  • ½ cup Cauliflower Cooking Water
  • 1 cup Freshly Grated Parmesan
  • Salt + Black Pepper, to taste
  • 16 oz. Three Farm Daughters Fettuccine Pasta
  • ½ cup Pasta Cooking Water
  • ½ cup Pasta Water
Instructions
  1. Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil. Once boiling, add a generous amount of Kosher salt and the cauliflower florets. Boil, uncovered, for 8 minutes or until fork tender. Reserve ½ cup of the boiling water before draining.
  2. Melt butter in a large skillet and sauté the minced garlic until fragrant. About 1 minute.
  3. Add drained cauliflower and garlic to a blender along with the half and half and reserved cooking water. Blend until smooth.
  4. Transfer cauliflower garlic cream sauce to a large skillet over low heat. Fold in the grated parmesan, taste, and add salt + pepper to your own personal preferences. Keep on low heat, covered, until you're ready to serve.
  5. Cook fettuccine in boiling water according to its packaged directions, between 11 - 13 minutes. Reserve ½ cup cooking water before draining.
  6. Place fettuccine back in the stock pot and pour over the warm garlic cream sauce, ½ cup at a time, until you've reached your desired pasta-to-sauce ratio. I like to add a little pasta cooking water as well, as I feel it helps marry the sauce to the pasta. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and enjoy immediately.

NOTES ON THIS RECIPE:

  • Make sure to use real Parmesan cheese with half and half in this recipe, otherwise it will not turn out as creamy. 
  • If you’d like to add protein to this recipe, I recommend sautéed shrimp and shredded or ground chicken. For extra veggies, sautéed mushrooms or peas would make a wonderful addition as well. 
  • Any pasta from Three Farm Daughters works in this recipe. Feel free to swap the fettuccine with linguine or fusilli.

.
FOR THE CRISPY RICE CAKES:

DIRECTIONS:
1. Rinse the rice in cold water in a large fine mesh strainer for 1 - 2 minutes. Or until the water runs clear. Drain well.
2. Bring water and rice vinegar to a boil in a large stockpot. Carefully add the rinsed rice, sugar and salt and cook according to the packaged directions. About 20 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed.

Shallow pan-fry the rice squares on each side until browned and crispy. Drain on a plate lined with a couple paper towels. Depending on the size of your pan, you may have to work in batches.
6. While the rice cakes are still warm, top with a heavy drizzle of horseradish cream, thinly sliced roast beef, pickle chips and Italian parsley. Enjoy immediately.

FOR THE CRAB CAKES:
• ½ lb. Jumbo Lump Crab Meat
• ½ lb. Lump or Claw Crab Meat
• 1 cup Crushed Unsalted Saltine Crackers (about 21 crackers)
• 1 Large Egg
• ½ cup Mayonnaise
• 2-3 Dashes Tabasco Sauce
• 1 tsp. Old Bay Seasoning
• 1 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
• ⅛ tsp. Kosher Salt
• 1 tbsp. Minced Fresh Italian Parsley
• 2 tsp. Fresh Lemon Juice
• 1 tbsp. Lemon Zest (optional)
• ¼ cup Vegetable Oil, for cooking
.
SUGGESTED SANDWICH INGREDIENTS:
• Toasted Bread (sandwich bread, French rolls, hamburger buns)
• Pepperoncini Tarter Sauce (recipe on blog)
• Lettuce
• Tomato Slices
• Red Onion Slices
• Fresh Dill, as needed for garnish
• Lemon Wedges, for serving
.
DIRECTIONS:
1. Combine crab meat and crushed crackers in a large mixing bowl.
2. In a medium sized mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, mayonnaise, tobacco sauce, old bay, Worcestershire, salt, Italian parsley, lemon juice and optional lemon zest.
3. Fold the mayonnaise mixture into the crab meat and set the mix in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors blend.
4. Once you'r ready to cook, divide the crab cake mixture into 8 patties. Be careful not to overwork the mixture (this will ensure you still have large clumps of crab meat).
5. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add oil and heat. Test the oil with a tiny piece of crab cake mix. If it sizzles... the oil is ready.
6. Once the oil is hot enough to sear the crab cakes, cook them for about 3 - 4 minutes per side. You know they are done when they are golden brown and hot in the center. Depending on the size of your skillet, you may have to work in batches.
7. When finished, transfer crab cakes to a plate lined with paper towels to drain.
8. Assemble sandwiches immediately with suggested ingredients. 
9. Store any leftover crab cakes in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

• 1 package Brioche Slider Rolls
• Raspberry Jam, as needed
• Mayonnaise, as needed
• 1/4 lb. Thinly-Sliced Honey Turkey
• 1/2 lb. Thinly-Sliced Maple Ham
• 1/2 lb. Brie Cheese, sliced
• 1/4 cup + 1 tbsp. Butter  
• 2 Eggs
• 1 tbsp. Dijon Mustard 
• Powdered Sugar, as needed
.
DIRECTIONS:
1. Preheat oven to 350F and preheat a cast iron skillet on the stove to medium-high. 
2. Remove rolls from package and slice them in half horizontally. Slather the inner part of the bottom portion with mayonnaise and the inner part of the top portion with raspberry jam. 
3. Layer the bottom portion with turkey, ham and brie cheese. 
4. Melt 1/4 cup of butter and whisk together with dijon mustard and two eggs. Pour onto a plate large enough to fit the rolls in. 
5. Coat all sides of the preheated skillet with 1 tbsp. Butter. Place bottom portion of the rolls into the egg mixture and then place them immediately in the cast iron skillet. Dunk the top portion of the rolls (raspberry jam side-up) into the egg mixture and then flip and place raspberry-side down over the brie cheese layer. Heat the sliders in the skillet for 1 minute.
6. Lightly tent the sliders with foil and transfer them from the stove to the oven. NOTE: Spray the inside of the aluminum foil with cooking spray, or it will stick to the top of the rolls. Bake for 20 minutes, then remove foil and continue to bake for another 10 minutes. 
7. Remove from the oven and transfer sliders from the cast iron skillet to a cooling rack. Cool for 10 minutes before slicing. Dust with powdered sugar just before serving.
