Sesame Cauliflower

Buffalo Tempeh

Vegetables

Method

Prepare Sesame Cauliflower

  1. 1

    Roast the Cauliflower

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). In a large bowl, combine the cauliflower florets with sesame oil, soy sauce, garlic powder, and salt. Toss until well coated.

  2. 2

    Bake

    Spread the cauliflower on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle sesame seeds over the top. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender and slightly crispy.

Prepare Buffalo Tempeh

  1. 3

    Prepare Tempeh

    Slice the tempeh into thin strips. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the tempeh and cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes on each side.

  2. 4

    Add Buffalo Sauce

    Once the tempeh is browned, pour buffalo sauce over it and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring to coat the tempeh evenly.

Cook Vegetables

  1. 5

    Prepare Sweet Potatoes

    Peel and chop sweet potatoes into cubes. Boil in salted water for about 15-20 minutes, or until tender. Drain and set aside.

  2. 6

    Sauté Kale and Other Vegetables

    In the same skillet used for tempeh, add chopped onion and bell pepper. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened. Add kale and cook until wilted, about 3-4 minutes. Stir in sweet corn and cooked sweet potatoes.

Assemble the Dish

  1. 7

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large bowl or on a serving platter, layer the sautéed vegetables, followed by the buffalo tempeh and roasted sesame cauliflower.

  2. 8

    Garnish

    Drizzle with cashew ranch dressing and sprinkle sunflower seeds on top before serving.
