Healthy Buffalo Cauliflower Recipe
I love buffalo sauce, who doesn’t! This recipe was one of the first that I ever made when I started my business and I have been totally overlooking it until this recent Super Bowl Sunday. I am pretty sure I could eat a whole head of cauliflower this way in one sitting! I didn’t, but I did eat if for breakfast the next day too.
Why cauliflower? Cauliflower is super nutritious and is loaded with Vitamin C, K, B6, and Folate plus it’s also full of Phytonutrients (antioxidants) that keep our bodies in tip top health. Cauliflower is low on the glycemic index (meaning it doesn’t raise your blood sugar high after eating it), is only about 30 calories per 1 cup serving and can be added to almost anything as it takes on flavors well. Try adding it to soups, stir-frys, replacing a portion of potatoes in your cooking and even smoothies!
Check out the recipe below, you’re going to love it!
If made as instructed, there are about 4 servings and the nutritional info is below:
Macros Per Serving: 9g protein, 14g carbs, 4g fat, 5g fiber
