Cauliflower Nuggets
These delicious breaded cauliflower florets are baked in the oven with a parmesan-crumb crust, they remind me of my Moms fried cauliflower I used to love as a kid – without all the frying! Great for kids or adults. I would serve them as a side dish, or double the portion for a meatless main with a big salad on the side.

I’m excited to share this recipe from my friend Lisa’s new cookbook 100 Days of Real Food Fast and Fabulous. Lisa says in her book “Now, I’m not saying you can pass off cauliflower for chicken in this recipe, but the cooking method is similar to baked chicken nuggets and the outcome is surprisingly delicious. I grew up with my mom’s breaded cauliflower and must confess it’s a great way to get a good first impression of this vegetable. I’m not sure if I would’ve tried it as a kid without the breading, but now I’m a big fan of cauliflower no matter how it’s cooked!”
These were SO good I could have easily eaten two servings! Lisa shares easy, family-friendly recipes in her new cookbook teaching people how to cut out processed foods in your daily life. Her book does not contain nutritional information for those counting calories, but she has recipes labeled by food allergies, and one of my favorite features in her book is her helpful lunch box ideas for kids and adults, a great resource for families looking to eliminate processed junk from your home.
