Cauliflower, believe it or not, is somewhat in vogue right now. Not only is it a cruciferous vegetable, which means it packs a wealth of health benefits, but it’s also incredibly versatile. It can be grilled, roasted, sauteed, or pureed and cooked into just about anything. Of course, we prefer to keep our veggies looking like themselves and we’ve always been fond of roasting.<\/p>\n

\"Roasted<\/a>There was a decadent roasted vegetable dish on the menu at the French restaurant where I worked in college. It consisted of roasted winter vegetables, served over basmati rice, and topped with cream. Real cream. It was so simple and so rich. That served as our inspiration for this cauliflower dish, but\u00a0it was necessary to come up with a slightly healthier version.<\/p>\n

\"Roasted<\/a>We combined cauliflower with red onion, carrots, and parsnips and roasted them until slightly browned and crispy, then whipped up a kefir-based “cream sauce” with saffron, citrus, and shallots. \u00a0My mouth is still watering over the results.<\/p>\n
