Buffalo Cauliflower

with Dilly Quinoa & Tzatziki

A dusting of polenta gives cauliflower florets a hearty, crispy coating. We serve these on a bed of fluffy, herby quinoa. A drizzle of tangy vegan tzatziki provides a cooling, refreshing contrast to fiery buffalo sauce.

INSTRUCTIONS

1
Roast the cauliflower

Preheat oven to 425°F. Combine cauliflower, just 1/2 tsp turmeric, polenta, 2 tbsp olive oil, and ½ tsp salt in large bowl and toss. Transfer to baking sheet and roast until cauliflower is slightly browned and crisp in places, 35 to 40 minutes, gently flipping halfway through.

2
Make the quinoa

Meanwhile, make small tear at top of quinoa bag and microwave for 60 seconds. Transfer to bowl and stir in dill, lemon zest, and just half the lemon juice; set aside. (TIP: You can also combine precooked quinoa and 1 tbsp water in small saucepan over medium-high heat. Cover and steam until warmed through, 3 to 4 minutes.)

3
Make the kale salad and serve

Combine kale, 1 tsp olive oil, remaining lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper in large bowl and toss to coat. Divide dilly quinoa and kale salad between bowls. Top with polenta-crusted cauliflower. Drizzle with tzatziki and Buffalo sauce. Dig in!
