Did you get the memo about cauliflower? And how it can morph into so many things? If not, you better go grab a few heads of cauliflower because there is so much you can do with it!
Let’s Talk Cauliflower
Cauliflower was once the humble vegetable that has now gained popularity like no other vegetable before.
BENEFITS:
- High in fiber
- Good source of antioxidants
- Rich in vitamins and minerals
- Inexpensive and found easily
WHAT IT CAN DO:
- Need a low-carb version of rice? Rice up some cauliflower and saute! It makes the perfect base so you can enjoy your favorite curries without the added carbs.
- Puree it for a healthier alternative to mashed potatoes.
- Cut them, coat them, and back them for some delicious buffalo-flavored cauliflower bites. This is my absolute favorite thing to do with cauliflower.
Do these taste exactly like buffalo wings? No, they don’t. They’re made from cauliflower. If you come with the expectation that they’ll taste just like your favorite chicken wings, these might disappoint. Are these delicious as cauliflower buffalo bites? Heck yes! They’re spicy, crunchy, and so flavorful.
