Step 1

Combine the cauliflower, butter, salt, pepper, and garlic powder in a microwave safe bowl.

Step 2

Microwave on high for six minutes – or until the cauliflower is tender and done to your liking.

Step 3

Add the mascarpone cheese and microwave on high for 2 more minutes.

Step 4

Add the parmesan cheese and stir until fully blended and creamy. Cool for 2 minutes (so you don’t cook the pesto when you add it and lose the green color.)

Step 5

Stir in the basil pesto and serve warm.
