Vegan Chipotle Cauliflower Buffalo Bites + Raw Cashew Ranch Dip (gf) The 2014 Football Season is here, and what better way to kick it off than with some spicy, saucy, "I need 20 napkins" buffalo bites? Oh, and they're...drumroll...healthy too. Wait....don't go! Stay for this, I know you'll love them. Cheezy burger spreads, pizza crust, oven-roasted steaks, and now buffalo wings, I think it's safe to say that with Cauliflower, you can do it all. Cauliflower is one of my favorite ingredients to use because it is so versatile and has a power punch of nutrition. It's my go-to vegetable when I try to create a recipes with hidden vegetables for my family to try. Vegan Chipotle Cauliflower Buffalo Bites + Raw Cashew Ranch Dip (gf)

Whole Roasted Cauliflower (gf, low fat) I recently made (and posted) The Best Vegan 'Cheese' (Cashew-free) recipe created by Minimalist Baker both on my site and on my Instagram, and it turned out to be a huge hit! The recipe is cashew, soy, dairy, and gluten-free and is way lighter in fat than nut and dairy-based cheese sauce, and SO. FREAKING. GOOD! The only problem was that I had made so much of it AND ran out of things to dip into it. I headed to my fridge to grab the cauliflower and chop it up to use as a "chip" as I had the jicama and broccoli, but then, a big lightbulb appeared in my head! I could slather on the cheese and roast the cauliflower, WHOLE! I was introduces to the idea by My New Roots, but never tried it as her marinade was not vegan. I knew that I could come up with a marinade that would be delicious for the recipe someday, but the idea eventually left my mind and I never got around to it. Well, with the help of Dana, I finally had what I needed.

Rolls and Sauce Today I am going to share a recipe that I love because of the fact that it is so versatile and actually really fun to make. All you need is a blender/food processor, a knife, a cutting board and a bowl of water. I suggest laying out all of the ingredients and letting everyone that is going to join you for dinner make their own rolls. It is a chance for you to connect with others on a level far different from how you would during a normal day-to-day conversation. Connection with others, I have learned, is a large part of living your health. You get the chance to share yourself and what you love, and maybe even open the minds of others to ideas that they had never previously considered. In connecting with others, you not only get the opportunity to learn more about them, but you also get the chance to learn about and connect with yourself. herbs
