Bring the broth to a boil over medium high heat and add cauliflower and cook until very soft, about 25-30 minutes

Puree cauliflower and broth in a blender or food processor

In a sprayed skillet cook garlic for about 5 minutes over medium heat, stirring frequently, add mushrooms if using mushrooms, add cauliflower puree, evaporated milk, bring to a simmer and cook for about 5 mintues, add pepper to taste and cheese, butter and lemon zest, stir frequently and cook until heated through

If it begins to get too thick add a little skim milk or a little more low fat evaporated milk
