Buffalo Cauliflower Recipe

As I have gotten older, I realize more and more that I didn’t eat a big variety of veggies growing up.  Or maybe I did but they were the more Southern varieties.

Thinking about it, I can come up with field peas, black eyed peas, green beans, green peas, turnip greens, yellow squash and collards.  Oh and okra!  That was served but I didn’t touch it!

There was definitely no cauliflower or broccoli or asparagus or spinach or zucchini.   It’s interesting.  I think I need to have a conversation with my mother.

I love all vegetables!!  Now that cauliflower has become all the rave, I have it so much more than ever.

I usually opt for my favorite Balsamic Roasted Cauliflower but this week I got bold and decided to spice it up with some buffalo sauce.

Try these other healthy cauliflower recipes too!  They each give you a little different flavor.

These buffalo cauliflower bites can be a fun low carb appetizer, too, believe it or not.  Serve them up with your favorite blue cheese or ranch dressing.  (am I the odd one out on liking ranch with my buffalo instead of blue cheese?)
