6 Low Carb Cauliflower Recipes

I am constantly trying to find ways to cook our favorite foods but in a healthier way. Cooking with cauliflower I have found a way to do just that. Cauliflower is such a versatile vegetable. I have used it to make pizza crust, lasagna, fried rice, and cornbread. It is a great way to replace carbs in some of our favorite foods. Below I have rounded up 6 low carb cauliflower recipes that are a hit at our house.

Turmeric Roasted Cauliflower

Yes, you read that right, another cauliflower recipe. I hope you aren’t getting tired of cauliflower yet because there is still more to come. It is such a versatile vegetable and I enjoy experimenting with it to find new ways to prepare it. You may have read my previous posts on cauliflower pizza, or maybe cauliflower cornbread biscuits, or (yes there’s more) cauliflower lasagna. Those recipes are all a little more involved and time consuming than the recipe I will be sharing today. If you found those other recipes too daunting, this may be the best one to try first as its much easier to complete. Today I will be sharing a recipe for turmeric roasted cauliflower.

All you need to make this delicious side dish is a head of cauliflower, 2 tbsp. of olive oil, 1/3 cup of parmesan cheese, 1tsp of garlic powder, and 1/2 tsp of turmeric. Start off by breaking down the cauliflower and removing the majority of the stems the best you can. Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F.
