INGREDIENTS
2 cups cauliflower florets (150g)
3 oz cooked chicken breast (85g)
1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese (56g)
1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk (60g)
1 clove garlic, minced
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat a pan over medium heat and lightly season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Cook the chicken until done, then shred or dice it into bite-sized pieces.
Steam the cauliflower florets until tender, about 6-8 minutes.
In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the steamed cauliflower, unsweetened almond milk, and minced garlic. Using a blender or immersion blender, blend the mixture until smooth to create a creamy base.
Return the blended cauliflower sauce to the saucepan and stir in the shredded sharp cheddar cheese. Mix until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
Combine the shredded chicken with the cauliflower sauce in a large bowl. Stir gently until well coated.
Serve warm, garnished with a sprinkle of extra cheese or a crack of pepper if desired.
