Cauliflower is one of those bland vegetables that needs a little (or a lot) of help before it's appealing. Despite being bland it's chocked full of nutrients, so the cruciferous vegetable should be on your list of foods to eat. When you toss it in our Tandoori Almond Butter Sauce and roast it in the oven then you have a healthy dish bursting with flavor that you will want to keep on your list of foods to eat. 

Our Tandoori Almond Butter sauce uses Sohnrey Family Foods Natural Almond Butter, Knaughty Farms Extra Virgin Olive Oil, and a pungent mix of spices--including a variety of spices from our brand new Kiki's Cupboard product lineup. Serve our Tandoori Roasted Cauliflower with Sohnrey Family Foods Calrose Rice.
