Buffalo Cauliflower “Wings”

Buffalo Cauliflower “Wings” is the prefect dish to celebrate “Meatless Mondays.” It’s crispy and spicy without the guilt and calories of eating meat!

Buffalo Cauliflower Wings:

1 Cauliflower Head

1/2 cup Otto’s Natural Cassava Flour

3/4 cup Water

1/4 tsp FlavorGod Garlic Lover’s Seasoning

Instructions:

Pour 1/2 cup of Otto’s Natural Cassava Flour, 3/4 cup of water, and 1/4 tsp of FlavorGod seasoning into a mixing bowl and stir. Take Cauliflower pieces and rinse them; then take a paper towel and dry it. Place the cauliflower into the flour mixture. Next place parchment paper onto a cookie sheet, and then put the cauliflower pieces onto it. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Let the cauliflower cook for 25-30 minutes. Then take the cauliflower, and pour your favorite hot wing sauce over the cauliflower, and then place it back in the oven to cook for 15 minutes. My favorite wing sauce is by the brand called Bella.

The Perfect Topping: Cassava Chips

Whenever I try to eat healthy, the one snack that I miss eating the most are chips! Today I came up with a guilt free recipe for cassava chips using Otto’s Natural Cassava Flour. These chips are perfect to eat with dips like hummus, salsa, and guacamole. 

Cassava Chips

You’ll Need:

1/2 cup Otto’s Natural Cassava Flour

1tbsp Coconut Oil

3/4 cup warm water

1/4 tsp FlavorGod Garlic Lover’s Seasoning

1 tbsp Arrowroot Flour

1 tbsp Ground Flaxseed

1 piece of Parchment Paper

1 Plattin Pan

Avocado Oil Spray

Instructions:

Mix water,cassava flour, arrowroot flour, flaxseed, and coconut oil together, until the flour turns into a dough ball. If the dough feels too moist add more cassava flour. Next separate dough into 10 balls. Then place a ball onto a piece of parchment paper, and use a rolling pin to flatten the dough into a circle. Heat your plattin pan, and pour a little canola oil into your pan. Place your cassava tortilla onto the plattin. Flip the tortilla once bubbles start to form at the top. Once the tortilla has a golden hue remove it from the pan, and place it onto a plate and cover it with a damp paper towel. After the tortilla has finished cooling use a pizza cutter and cut the tortilla into small pieces. Spray some Avocado Oil and 1/4 tsp of FlavorGod seasoning onto tortilla pieces. Place tortilla pieces onto a greased cookie sheet, and put in the oven. Select the broiler setting on your oven. Cook your cassava chips no more than for five minutes or less.

 

Honey Mustard Dressing

Honey mustard probably is one of my all time favorite dressings. I can eat it with fries, marinate meats with it, and pour it over various salads. This dressing is known for being both sweet and savory.

½ cup Mayo

¼ tsp Apple Cider Vinegar

¼ tsp Parsley Flakes

¼ Garlic Powder

1 tbsp Agave Nectar (or honey)

Instructions:

Mix all ingredients together, and taste to see if additional sweetener is required.

Salad Dressing Week- The Best Italian Vinaigrette

I love salad dressings! If there is no dressing on my salad, I’m less likely to eat it.

Perusing through the grocery store aisle, you might stumble upon some pre-made salad dressings ranging in price from $4-$10, and if you’re looking for an organic dressing it could cost more. I’ve always believed that eating healthy should not be a luxury; instead it should be affordable for all!

Today is the kickoff to Salad Month! Throughout the month of April you will find jam pack posts with gems on how you can create Michelin star dressings, salads, and toppings. Bon Appetit!

Italian Vinaigrette:

1/2 cup Olive Oil

1/4 tsp FlavorGod Garlic Lover’s Seasoning

1/4 tsp Cracked Black Peppercorn

1/4 tsp Onion Powder

1/4 tsp Parsley Flakes

1 tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar

Instructions:

Whisk all ingredients together until mixture changes from a light hue to a darker color. Taste mixture and add more seasoning if required.
