Healthy Hollandaise Sauce

Tami McBride
Make a healthy hollandaise sauce with about half the fat and calories of regular hollandaise that tastes virtually the same as the classic version. Substitute pureed cauliflower for part of the clarified butter and eat a healthier version of this French mother sauce.
