Open containers that’s all.
Makes approx. 13 cups or 6 servings
1 T. mashed garlic in a tube (THAT’S TASTY brand) or 2 t. garlic powder

fresh grind black pepper to taste – I use lots
12 oz. bag froz. riced cauliflower – CASCADIAN FARM ORGANIC – thawed
16 oz. KRAFT CREAMY ITALIAN DRESSING
2 T. sm. capers, drained
15.5 oz. can BUSH’S Cannellini Beans (white kidney beans)
3, DR WT 4 oz. cans mushroom slices, drained well – POLAR brand
salt to taste
1 lb. dried pasta – I used penne – cooked according to pkg. instructions, drained well and returned to pot – do not rinse
- Use short pasta; long strands don’t work well with the beans.
1- Cook pasta, drain, return to pot.
2- Add remaining ingredients, stir well and heat till very hot, stirring as needed. Don’t overcook – 5 minutes is enough.
3- Salt and pepper to taste.
4- Plate and serve.


Notes: Garnish with parsley if desired and a few twists of black pepper from the mill.
Many areas of the country and world do not have access to animal-free milk and cheeses. Yet, just about every place sells Kraft salad dressings. If you’re one of the lucky ones who have access to animal-free dairy, then sprinkling a bit of animal-free parmesan shaker cheese will enhance the dish further. But it’s not necessary; it was designed not to need the cheese.
