2-3 Tablespoons EVOO
4 cloves of garlic, chopped
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 head worth of organic cauliflower florets, chopped
1/2 cup toasted pine nuts
1/4 cup golden raisins
10 fresh basil leaves, finely chopped
Salt and pepper, to taste
Put the EVOO, garlic and red pepper flakes in a large saute pan and heat over medium heat. When garlic starts to become fragrant, add the cauliflower and saute about 10-12 minutes, stirring, until slightly browned. Add the pine nuts and raisins and saute another minute. Season with salt and pepper and toss in the basil leaves. Serve immediately.

Beautiful! thanks for sharing. I haven't seen purple cauli but I'll go hunting.
ReplyDeleteDelicious! I don't normally like cauliflower, but this was great. I knew I'd find a way around my unhealthy disliking :).

Hi
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful blog. I have become your follower.
I have also read The China Study and have been inspired by it. However what troubles me is the ban on milk products, since in India we use milk , curds (yoghurt) and Ghee( clarified butter) daily and these are considered health food when consumed in a balanced manner as per our ancient texts of Ayurveda. I also see that many of your recipes uses milk
However what is your take on dairy products ?
I try to minimize dairy products in my diet, but I do still eat them. Whenever possible, I use soy or almond milk, Daiya cheese, etc. My kids don't drink milk like most kids their age, but they do have cheese and yogurt. I strive to be vegan as I do believe that is the healthiest diet, and slowly I'm cutting out more and more dairy as I discover alternatives and learn to cook differently.
