Cauliflower Bites (aka Bang Bang Cauliflower) are my favorite go-to side dish.
You can even stick a few toothpicks in them and serve as an appetizer.
Whichever you choose, you and your guests won't be disappointed.

Cauliflower is full of health benefits that may surprise you. For instance, it's packed with vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B9, beta-carotene, and vitamin C. All of which are essential for the body's overall health and boosted immune system. It's so rich in anti-oxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds that it helps keep arteries free of plaque build up.
Looking to lose some weight? Try cauliflower! It's really low in calories, carbs and sugar, but is high in volume and filling fiber. Just one cup of cauliflower contains a bit over 3 grams of dietary fiber, which helps clean your digestive system and get rid of unnecessary substances (like pesky water weight).
