Cauliflower has exploded in popularity recently—making its way into everything from pizza crust to hot cereal, and also replacing rice in grainless bowls, stir-fries, sushi, and more. It makes sense from a nutrition perspective.
Cauliflower is nutrient dense
Cauliflower is anti-inflammatory
Cauliflower fends off the nation’s top two killers (heart disease and cancer)
Cauliflower fights aging
Cauliflower helps you detox
Cauliflower is fiber rich
Cauliflower supports healthy weight loss
It can be whipped into smoothies, “riced” and added to oatmeal or overnight oats, and folded into or used as a replacement for white rice in just about any dish. I also adore oven-roasted cauliflower, prepared with a little avocado olive oil, and sprinkled with a combo of sea salt, turmeric, and black pepper. It’s fantastic steamed or grilled and drizzled with a bit of dairy-free pesto or seasoned tahini, or steamed and mashed, flavored with extra virgin olive oil, garlic, and fresh or dried herbs.
