Bring a big pot of salted water to a boil. Blanch the cauliflower florets for 30 seconds and remove with a slotted spoon. Set aside.

In the same pot of water, cook the pasta until just tender. Drain, toss with cold water and set aside.

In a large bowl of a food processor, combine the yogurt, ricotta, mayonnaise, garlic, lemon juice, lemon zest, anchovy paste, 1/2 cup of the crumbled feta, basil and mint. Blend until smooth.
