This is a very different way to enjoy cauliflower every one likes this recipe!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

My favorite way to cook cauliflower is to cut it into small pieces and florets and saute it in a little olive oil, with a pinch of red pepper flakes and a little sea salt!. I like to garnish that with a handful of toasted slivered almonds!. It makes for a nice change to steamed or boiled!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

You can steam it, or microwave it (put the florets in a scant 1/4" water, cover with waxed paper & microwave 3-4 min)!.!.!. or even just use it raw!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!. We like it steamed with just butter and salt!. I don't like cheese sauce, and neither does anyone else in the familyWww@FoodAQ@Com

Cauliflower as well as broccoli is an excellent raw vegetable for salads!.
also, consider using some endive as part of your greens!.

Good luck!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

well it depends you can make a vegetable crudite which is just chopped vegetables with a dip
or you can boil vegetables and put them in a italian dressing marinade
both ways are fineWww@FoodAQ@Com

You can boil it but you don't have too!. I like to steam it!. I think it taste so much better steamed!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
