With its warm, spicy, and almost meat-like flavor and texture, this cauliflower dish can be served as a side or a vegetarian main dish that still feels hearty. As a unique way to serve cauliflower, it looks impressive but is easy to pull together. Feel free to make the yogurt sauce ahead of time.

Cauliflower Chili

Cauliflower Chili Recipe

Oscar Wilde famously espoused, “Everything in moderation, including moderation.” That is the spirit of this recipe. It isn’t attempting to make chili super low-calorie. It is attempting to mitigate the calories while retaining full pleasure. And it takes advantage of the texture and mild flavor of the current darling of the pantry, riced cauliflower. Readily available in pretty much any produce section of your local grocery store, or easily made by pulsing cauliflower florets in your food processor, this vegetable adds bulk to a chili while cutting the calories from meat literally in half.

Cauliflower Pizza Steaks

Cauliflower Pizza Steaks Recipe

This pizza may not have any dough, but that doesn’t make it any less satisfying. The cheese, meat, and pepperoni come at the forefront, so you get the feeling that you’re eating pizza before you realize you’re eating cauliflower. The crisp, roasted, and slightly salty cauliflower is an easy alternative to a cauliflower-based crust that you can actually pick up with your hands. Plus, no extra equipment, like a food processor, is needed.

If you love the flavors of a loaded baked potato—think cheddar cheese, crisp bacon, and the bright bite of chives—but are on a low-carb diet, then this soup is for you. We swap out the spuds for cauliflower and swirl the whole thing into a soup that has just 12g of carbs per serving—not bad for a hearty meal.

This spin on a traditional shakshuka incorporates cauliflower for added heartiness and texture. The capers deliver a briny, salty kick that livens up the tomato sauce in this flavorful vegetarian entree. Eat it on it’s own or serve with slices of crusty bread to sop up the sauce and runny egg yolk. The heat level in this brunch-ready skillet is on the low side, but feel free to increase the red pepper if you're feeling spicy. This play on eggs poached in tomato sauce is a delicous way to slip in an extra serving of veggies, so if you want to make it feel more like a dinnertime meal, serve the saucey eggs over a serving of al dente pasta.
