Roasted Garlic Cauliflower with Lemon Tahini Dip

 

Anyone looking for new and creative ways to get your kids to eat more veggies? I am always on the look out for dips that will win my kids over to any veggie. I originally saw a picture on Pinterest that captured my attention and pinned it to my board of Recipes I love!

The Lemon Tahini dressing is from Beyond the Peel. I loved the recipe but knew as a dressing it wouldn’t fly with my family. SO instead of adding it after the cauliflower was cooked. I just served it up in a dish as a dip. And.they.loved.it.

My head of cauliflower made about 3 cups cooked. So half a cup is only 55 calories!!

 

Cauliflower….The New Cool! Dips make any veggie better…..at least my kids think so!

  1. Cauliflower is a hot favorite in our house. Indian kitchens are equipped with making cauliflower a lot of ways. I love them anyway. Recently I posted a yogurt cauliflower recipe, and that was a big hit too. But I have never really had them with dips. That sounds like a great great idea!

  2. I think that roasting is really the best way to go when it comes to preparing cauliflower-yum! I will need to try your dip, I can think of many delicious uses for that. Great post!
