My obsession with cauliflower began when I went to a cooking class taught by Chef Jeff Masse. He made multiple INCREDIBLE dishes with this low protein veggie. When I switched to the “simplified diet” which counts some fruits and veggies as free, and saw that cauliflower was on my list…I got even m

1 pkggrissini

egg replacer

For the honey garlic sauce

6 Tbsphoney

4garlic cloves

minced

1 tsponion powder

6 Tbspwater

2 tspcornstarch

1 ½ Tbspcoconut aminos

½ Tbspsriracha

Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Start by mixing 2 tbsp. Of Bob’s Red Mill Egg Replacer in a small bowl with 4 tbsp. water. Let the mixture sit for one minute to thicken. Break the Grissini into “bread crumb” pieces by crunching with the bottom of a glass cup.

Step 2

Cut the cauliflower into chunks and prepare a lined baking sheet with aluminum foil. Dip the cauliflower into the binding mixture, roll in the bread crumbs, and place the cauliflower onto the lined baking sheet evenly.

Step 3

Bake the cauliflower chunks for 15-20 minutes or until the coating is brown and crunchy.

Step 4

While it bakes, let’s make the honey garlic sauce! Chop 4 cloves of garlic. In a separate bowl, stir 6 tbsp. of water with 2 tsp. cornstarch. Set this aside. It will be added to the sauce later to thicken it.

Step 5

In a small saucepan, gently simmer 6 tbsp. of honey, 1 ½ tbsp. soy sauce, ½ tbsp. sriracha, garlic, and 1 tsp. onion powder. Stir a bit, bring to a gentle simmer for a few seconds. Then, add corn starch and water. Stir the whole time or the cornstarch will clump up. Let the sauce thicken over heat for about 2 minutes. Let it cool a few minutes off of the heat to thicken more. Take cauliflower out of the oven. You can pour the sauce over the cauliflower to serve or use the sauce for dipping. Enjoy!
