SPICY CAULIFLOWER POWER BOWL |
This bowl was NOT supposed to be the recipe I posted today. I totally had another {equally delicious} recipe scheduled and ready to go and life was good.
But then I made these bowls on Friday. And the rest, my friends, is history.
Back in September, I made these incredible Spicy Buffalo Cauliflower Sandwiches. Ohhh it was EPIC! First of all, they’re super spicy— without being fire-in-your-mouth spicy— which is the BEST kind of spicy (in my mind). Secondly, they’re seriously flavorful. Think of it as a mix between buffalo wings and coconut curry. That sounds super odd, but trust me, they’re incredible.

Ever since I made those sandwiches, we’ve been absolutely obsessed with them here at my house. To the point where Nate has deemed them his actual favorite food (a little background: he says that about 5 times a week about a slew of different things, but these, apparently, are his actual favorite). But we don’t love eating a lot of bread in our diet, so I knew I needed to insert this cauliflower goodness into another whole grain dish.
After a few weeks of throwing some ideas around, I finally settled on these delicious, healthy quinoa power bowls. Since the cauliflower is SO flavorful, why not mix it up with some super nutritious ingredients? I’ve told you before I’m not a huge kale fan, but I sautéed some up and it actually went beautifully with this dish. I also added in some cooked chickpeas for protein, diced avocado as that creamy, cooling agent, and some chopped parsley on top just for a bit of freshness. It’s that perfect mix of flavors and textures, all in one beautiful protein-packed bowl!
Oh, and PS, the first time I trialled these, I made it with a poached egg on top instead of chickpeas and it was also outrageously good
Another thing…
This Spicy Cauliflower Power Bowl is absolutely perfect for your Sunday football spreads and is a great way to please both vegetarians and omnivores alike. Lots of people make “cauliflower wings” for game day, but I think spicy cauliflower in bowl form is just a whole other level of goodness. You could even do a “make your own spicy cauliflower bowl” with all the fixins’ and toppings. Ohhhh so many options!!
Let me know if you try these bowls and whatcha think!
