Title: Spicy Whole Roasted Cauliflower... YUMMY!
Post by: mouseissue on November 08, 2014, 01:40:46 PM

Hi, Gang!

I just came across another delicious way to prepare cauliflower.
It's absolutely delicious and a "must make" recipe.

Spicy Whole Roasted Cauliflower

 Ingredients

1 Head Cauliflower
1 TBSP Vegetable Oil
1½ Cups Low Carb Vanillia Yogurt
1 Lime, zested and juiced
2 TBSP Chile Powder
1 TBSP Cumin
1 TBSP Garlic Powder
1 TBSP Curry Powder
2 TSP Kosher or Sea Salt
1 TSP black pepper

 Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 400° and lightly grease a small baking sheet with vegetable oil. Set aside.

2. Trim the base of the cauliflower to remove any green leaves and the woody stem.

3. In a medium bowl, combine the yogurt with the lime zest and juice, chile powder, cumin, garlic powder,
curry powder, salt and pepper marinade.

4. Dunk the cauliflower into the bowl and use a brush or your hands to smear the marinade evenly over its surface.
(Excess marinade can be stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to three days and used with
meat, fish or other veggies.)

5. Place the cauliflower on the prepared baking sheet and roast until the surface is dry and lightly browned,
30 to 40 minutes.
The marinade will make a crust on the surface of the cauliflower.

6. Let the cauliflower cool for 10 minutes before cutting it into wedges.

7. Enjoy! :) :) :)

Thanks for the tip, Umpa! :) :) :)

Mayo would be a great substitute and be zero carb compared to the 3-4 carbs in low carb yogurt.
It works great as a coating for chicken. So why not cauliflower? ;)

Next time I make this, I'm going to use mayo.
