“Cheesy” Roasted Cauliflower

“Cheesy” Roasted Cauliflower

If you’re looking for a low-carb, plant-based side dish, this “Cheesy” Roasted Cauliflower is perfect! This recipe uses nutritional yeast (which is not an active yeast), which is rich in vitamins, minerals, and protein and makes for an amazing substitute for those with food allergies. It can be found at most grocery stores, and sometimes in bulk bins. This side dish pairs well with a bed of greens or other roasted vegetables.

If you’d prefer real cheese, you can substitute the vegan mayo and nutritional yeast for 1/4 c. shredded mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.

“Cheesy” Roasted Cauliflower

  • 1 head cauliflower, leaves & stems removed, chopped
  • 1/3 cup nutritional yeast
  • 3-4 Tbs vegan mayonnaise
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • Salt to taste
  • Olive oil
  • Apple cider vinegar

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400ºF
  2. Prepare your cauliflower and transfer it to a roasting pan.
  3. Add a small splash of olive oil and apple cider vinegar to the cauliflower and rub it into the cauliflower to combine well.
  4. In a small bowl, mix together the remaining ingredients.
  5. Add the “cheesy” mix to the cauliflower, combine well until each floret is covered.
  6. Place the pan in the oven and roast for 30-35 minutes, stirring halfway through.
  7. For cheesier cauliflower, you can add another scoop of vegan mayo and nutritional yeast.
  8. Once the cauliflower is roasted, remove it from the oven, serve and enjoy!

We paired our cauliflower with roasted root vegetables, tempeh, and a bed of shaved Brussels sprouts, cabbage, & kale

Slow Cooker Cauliflower Lentil Curry

This Slow Cooker Cauliflower Lentil Curry is perfect if you’re short on time to make dinner. Simply toss everything into the slow cooker and let the ingredients simmer together into this delicious, creamy curry.

Serves: 4-5 Time: 4-8 Hours

Slow Cooker Cauliflower Lentil Curry

  • 1/2 head of cauliflower, chopped

  • Salt to taste
  • 1/2 lime, juiced
  • Optional toppings: Minced cilantro, lime juice, chili flakes, chopped peanuts, or cashews

*Light coconut milk is a low-fat alternative. You may also substitute for unsweetened, unflavored soy or nut milk, cow’s milk (for non-vegan), or you may dilute regular coconut milk with water (i.e. 2/3 cup coconut milk + 1/3 cup water for a recipe that calls for 1 cup)

Directions

  1. Prepare your vegetables and add them to the crockpot or slow cooker.
  2. Then, add in the lentils, coconut milk, curry paste, lime juice, and vegetable broth or water.
  3. Using a wooden spoon, mix in the seasonings.
  4. If you’re setting your cooker to low heat, allow it to cook for 7-8 hours, but if you’re cooking on high, allow it to cook for 4-6 hours. If possible, you can stir it about halfway through.
  5. Once it is done cooking, taste and adjust seasoning as desired.
  6. Serve with rice or naan bread and optional toppings and enjoy!

Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
