Shawarma Cauliflower Bowl

I absolutely love shawarma. Not to be dramatic but I would probably die for shawarma. I have been looking for a meatless option because my father has recently decided to stop eating meat, so I took my favorite shawarma seasoning blend and used it on some cauliflower, and kind of made a salad bowl. This is not authentic at all, just for funsies.

Uh-oh! We're unable to calculate nutrition for this recipe because some ingredients aren't recognized.
