Spicy Caramelized Cauliflower – you simply have to try it, in order to understand how crazy good this is. Cauliflower that leaves you reaching for just one more bite? How is that possible? Well, this cauliflower does just that and we love it.
What do you call the cauliflower that you simply can not stop eating? This recipe was completely impulsive and it turned out absolutely amazing. I demolished half the pan just minutes after it finished cooking!
I served this cauliflower with Simple Skillet Pork Chops and the whole time I was waiting for them on the stove, I kept reaching over for another piece of this cauliflower.
Cauliflower is a great vegetable both for roasting and for combining with other unexpected flavors. The texture holds up well and it is almost a blank canvas for whatever flavors you like best. Barefeet In The Kitchen creator video with Mary Younkin
I was putting away groceries earlier this week when my eye hit the cauliflower I was planning to roast. I saw my newest favorite barbecue sauce sitting in the refrigerator and wondered how it might work as a glaze or a marinade. I am so glad I tried it!
I’ve made this cauliflower three times already and my kids are very happily eating it, despite the fact that they’d all previously declared cauliflower “not a favorite food.” Ha, barbecue sauce for that win.
