Cauliflower Bites With Tahini Dip

April 19, 2017 by theorganicspoon Leave a Comment

Don’t these just look as awesome as they tasted?! They were demolished almost instantly. Just such a tasty snack for before dinner or as a starter and really easy to make with relatively few ingredients. I used rice breadcrumbs but you can use any breadcrumbs you may have at home. Ingredients 1 cauliflower, broken into…

Creamy Cauliflower Sweetcorn Baby Blend (& Some Info On Nutritional Yeast)

August 17, 2016 by theorganicspoon Leave a Comment

(Sorry for the bad picture on this one – busy mama alert!) Just because Braxton is dairy-free, doesn’t mean he misses out. The combination of cauliflower and sweetcorn is great, it goes really creamy. Add to that some nutritional yeast and it literally could not get any creamier if you were to add butter! The…

Cauliflower ‘Couscous’ with Sesame, Sweet Potato & Asparagus

June 21, 2016 by theorganicspoon Leave a Comment

Who would have thought you could take a vegetable and turn it into a carb substitute? Sometimes we just fancy a bit of stodge for dinner, right?? Cauliflower is such a versatile vegetable and by blitzing it in the Vitamix, we can turn it into a couscous-like consistency. You can pretty much add anything you…

Cauliflower Pizza Base

August 31, 2015 by theorganicspoon Leave a Comment

We already have a couple of pizza base recipes on the blog, but I came up with a new one recently and it’s definitely my favourite. I use a combination of cauliflower and zucchini with psyllium husks so it is gluten- and grain-free. The mixture comes out a very vivid lime green, which is fun…

Cauliflower & Tahini Soup

February 1, 2015 by theorganicspoon 3 Comments

I love cauliflower, especially as a purée, because of the beautiful smooth texture it blends into. This soup makes use of that, and the addition of tahini makes it even creamier! Cauliflower contains sulforaphane, which has been shown to kill cancer stem cells, thereby slowing tumor growth. Researchers believe that eliminating cancer stem cells may…
