Recipe: Golden Cauliflower with Sage

Side Dish Recipes, Vegetable Recipes

By: Chris Freytag, CPT


Cauliflower, like its close relative broccoli, is one of the healthiest foods on the planet. While it is high in fiber, vitamin C, antioxidants, and calcium, I think my favorite thing about cauliflower is how well it can absorb flavors like the sage in this dish. This recipe is a play on an Italian way of preparing ravioli; only instead, it is made into a side dish by substituting cauliflower in place of the ravioli. The cauliflower, sautéed in butter and sage, actually caramelizes and takes on a wonderful, almost nutty flavor. You can also make this dish with a mixture of regular and purple cauliflower for a really beautiful presentation.
