Now I know in this recipe we are talking about cauliflower. Who likes that veggie anyway? It’s usually left out on the party tray - not even ranch dressing would make it taste better. So I faced the challenge. I tried to create this recipe in hope this vegetable will become one of your favorite. Beside other health benefits, cauliflower has tons of vitamin C and B, magnesium, potassium and a lot of protein. It's basically a superfood. And trust me, it is good! Praise God! I am using very simple ingredients- fresh from the garden. You might want to double the recipe :)
1 head of cauliflower
Parsley Pesto:
• 1/3 cup roasted almonds
• 1/4 cup of roasted sunflower seeds
• 4 cups of fresh parsley leaves
• 1/2 cup chopped chives
• ¾ cup extra-virgin olive oil (or avocado oil)
• ½ cup Parmesan (or Feta) cheese
• pinch of turmeric spice
• pinch of paprika
• salt and pepper
• lemon juice squeezed from 1 lemon
• chili peppers or garlic (optional)
Cut or pull apart little pieces of cauliflower, rinse well. Steam cauliflower just little bit until you can pierce it with your fork- about 10 minutes depending how big your pieces are.
Mix the rest of your ingredients in a blender or food processor. Pour it over the cauliflower, and mix and toss well. Bake 20 minutes on 400F. Enjoy!
