Newbie – Cauliflower LOVE {recipes}

Did you know that CAULIFLOWER is a cruciferous veggie and belongs to the same family as KALE and BROCCOLI??

 This delicious veggie gets left behind too often because its lack of bright bold colors. It is loaded with nutrients that help maintain a healthy lifestyle, and it’s so tasty on its own raw or steamed. I love snack on it anytime. Lately to feed my curry fix I have been making these two recipes a lot!! Give them a try. Let me know how you like your Cauliflower in the comments below!
