One of my simplest recipes and yet one of my tastiest. If you love cauliflower and spices then you’ll love these Vegan Anti-inflammatory Roasted Cauliflower Nuggets. Smothered in lashings of gut healing and immune restoring spices like turmeric, black pepper, coriander, cumin and paprika. They’re a super easy side dish that really lends itself to autumn, a time when we’re starting to crave more comforting, wholesome ingredients that nurture and restore.
I love Roasted Cauliflower nuggets not only for their anti-inflammatory benefits but their simplicity. Pair with whatever protein takes your fancy. I’m also a fan of these topped on a good soup… because no soup is complete in my life without a tasty topper! I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
