Roasted Cauliflower

Method

Preparation of Roasted Cauliflower

  1. 1

    Roast the Cauliflower

    Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Cut the cauliflower into florets and toss with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes, or until golden and tender.

Preparation of Coconut Buffalo Sauce

  1. 2

    Make the Sauce

    In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine coconut milk, hot sauce, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and maple syrup. Stir well and simmer for about 10 minutes, until slightly thickened.

Assembly

  1. 3

    Assemble the Buff Bowl

    In a large bowl, layer the coconut avocado rice as the base. Top with roasted cauliflower, drizzle with coconut buffalo sauce, then add chopped celery, crumbled blue cheese, and tempura onions. Finish with lime caesar dressing and fresh herbs. Serve with crispy chicken, if desired.
