Healthy White Sauce Part 1

Healthy White Sauce Part 2

1 head cauliflower
1 bag of white beans (chic peas, navy beans, or northern) cooked
1 leek, diced
4-5 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
2 cups chicken stock (substitute with vegetable stock)
2 cups water
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Cauliflower

Directions
1. Add all ingredients to a large pot and bring to a boil
2. Puree ingredients in batches in a blender until smooth.
3. After the food processor, I put my mixture back into a large soup pot.
4. Add more salt, pepper, crushed red pepper and herbs and season to taste.
5. Simmer 15 minutes and serve. In large batches, I can easily store my white sauce, and use it as a substitute.
A slightly different version can be found at Healthy White Sauce Alternative (White Beans and Cauliflower).
