Who doesn't like more veggies in their diet. This recipe was amazing! Definitely on my make again list. We had homemade french dips to accompany. The picture below was the hubs plate and he was stuffed!

Pepper

Cook the cauliflower and carrots covered in a saucepan filled about a 1/4 of the way with water for about 10 minutes until tender. Drain the veggies and let them cool for a minute.
Meanwhile, cook the pasta according to the package directions.
Put the veggies in the blender or vitamix with about 3/4 cup of water and puree until smooth. Add the puree to a large sauce pan. On medium-low heat, add in the milk, salt, pepper, colby, butter and cream cheese and stir until melted.
