Cooking Steps

Prep
1
  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 425°F.
  • Wash and dry all produce.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high.
  • Meanwhile, cut cauliflower into bite-sized pieces.
  • Peel, then cut half the onion (use whole onion for 4 servings) into 1/4-inch pieces.
Roast cauliflower
2
  • To an unlined baking sheet, add cauliflower and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil.
  • Season with half the garlic salt and pepper, then toss to coat.
  • Roast in the middle of the oven for 14-16 min, until browned.
Cook rigatoni
3
  • Meanwhile, to the boiling water, add rigatoni.
  • Cook for 12-13 min, stirring occasionally, until tender but still firm to the bite.
  • Reserve 1/2 cup (1 cup) pasta water. Strain rigatoni, then return to the pot, off heat.
Make creamy sauce
4
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium.
  • When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, then onions. Cook for 3-4 min, stirring often, until softened.
  • Sprinkle flour and remaining garlic salt over onions.
  • Cook for 1 min, stirring often, until onions are coated.
  • Add cream and 1/2 cup (1 cup) milk, then bring to a boil.
  • Once boiling, cook for 1 min, stirring often, until sauce thickens.
  • Remove from heat, then add spinach. Stir for 1 min, until wilted.
Assemble pasta
5
  • To the pot with rigatoni, add cheese, creamy sauce, cauliflower and half the reserved pasta. 
  • Stir for 1 min, until cheese melts. (TIP: For a lighter sauce consistency, add more reserved pasta water, 1-2 tbsp at a time.)
  • Season with salt and pepper.
Finish and serve
6
  • Divide cheesy creamy cauliflower pasta between bowls.
  • Sprinkle chili flakes over top, if you like.
