The Kitchn: Healthy snack hits all the right notes
You've probably heard of cauliflower as a stand-in for steak or rice by now, but what about chicken? In this recipe, roasted cauliflower florets are doused in Buffalo wing sauce and wrapped up in crunchy lettuce leaves for a vegetarian take on Buffalo wings.
After small cauliflower florets are roasted in a hot oven until crisp, they're tossed with the traditional hot sauce-butter mixture. Fill lettuce cups with the sauced cauliflower, top with creamy blue cheese crumbles and thinly sliced celery, and now you've got a fun appetizer or game-day snack that hits all the right notes of crunchy, spicy, salty, sour and creamy.
