\"looking<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I used to go to Olive Garden often to order their Steak Gorgonzola Alfredo pasta dish.  I didn\u2019t even need to look at a menu, that\u2019s just what I got, every. single. time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It never left me disappointed and I would eat the WHOLE plate.  All 1300 calories and 70 grams of fat, oh yes I did.  Then of course I\u2019d go home in a food coma and swear to share half of it next time (nope, not gonna happen).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Making Cauliflower Fettuccine Alfredo in an Instant Pot<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

An Instant Pot is one of the most popular brands of electric pressure cookers. They are easy to use and your Instant Pot can help you create this delicious Cauliflower Fettuccine Alfredo recipe!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I haven\u2019t been back to Olive Garden in years because of this very recipe that I\u2019m sharing today.  This Alfredo sauce is made with a touch of butter and a whole ton of cauliflower.  No cream, no cheese, yet still it tastes oh-so-creamy and cheesy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then, since I get giddy over adding even more veggies to my veggie sauce, I\u2019ve also added chopped spinach and green onions.  I\u2019ve also topped it with leftover grilled chicken, sausage, or bacon before, all completely amazing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Cauliflower<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Then to mimic the flavors of the Olive Garden version, I sprinkle it with gorgonzola crumbles, chopped sun-dried tomatoes, and a drizzle of Balsamic glaze.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I particularly love this one from Trader Joes<\/a>, but if you\u2019re feeling ambitious, you could also reduce your own balsamic vinegar down on the stove top until it\u2019s nice and thick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ve also used just a thicker balsamic vinegar before.  All work wonderfully, just don\u2019t nix the balsamic, whatever you do!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"close<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Go for a whole grain pasta for this dish too.  It marries beautifully with this sauce.  My favorite is the Tinkyada brand<\/a><\/strong>, but any whole wheat pasta will do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"White<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In case you’re not feeling like pasta (does that ever happen?), this sauce can be used in so many other applications.  Stir it into rice for a creamy cheesy rice, use it as a dip for roasted veggies or warm crusty bread, or my favorite, use it as a pizza sauce and then top that with grilled chicken, bacon, gorgonzola, mozzarella, and slices of tomatoes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then finish it off with a drizzle of balsamic after it\u2019s done cooking!  It\u2019s heaven, it really is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now get cooking and enjoy a big bowl of the healthiest fettuccine alfredo you’ve ever had!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
