Ingredients

1 head cauliflower, cut into florets

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 clove garlic, smashed

¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 tablespoon reduced-fat cream cheese

½ teaspoon kosher salt

⅛ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Place a steamer insert into a saucepan; fill with water just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil; add cauliflower, cover, and steam until tender, about 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat; cook and stir garlic until softened, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.

Transfer 1/2 of the cauliflower to a food processor; cover and blend on high. Add remaining cauliflower florets, one at a time, until vegetables are creamy. Blend in cooked garlic, Parmesan cheese, cream cheese, salt, and black pepper.
