HOW TO COOK THE BEST BROCCOLI AND CAULIFLOWER RICE

Steps:

• Remove the stem and leaves from the broccoli and cauliflower. Chop into chunks and blitz in a food processor using the S blade until they resemble a rice consistency.
• Place the broccoli and cauliflower rice in a metal steamer in 1cm of water and cook for 3 - 5 minutes (or microwave on medium/ high for 3 - 5 minutes) until soft. You may need to do this in batches.
• Allow to cool slightly and transfer to a muslin cloth or clean thin tea towel. Squeeze out the excess water. This is the magic step that will make your veggie rices fluffy!
• Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil, or coconut oil in a pan. Add the veggie rices (you can use all cauliflower or all broccoli if you prefer, just make sure it's the same weight) and fry for 1 further minute. Fluff up with a fork and mix well. Season to taste.
• Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a pan. Add the onions, saute on a medium/ low heat for 3 - 4 minutes until soft. Add the garlic for a further 30 seconds until fragrant.
• Stir through the broccoli or cauliflower rice, or mix of. Season to taste.
• Stir all the dressing ingredients in a small bowl. Drizzle, as much to taste, over your broccoli and cauliflower rice and top with optional fresh parsley and avocado.

THE BEST CREAMY BROCCOLI CAULIFLOWER SALAD RECIPE

Steps:

• Place the cooked and crumbled bacon, broccoli, cauliflower, peas, and red onion in a bowl, set aside.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the dressing ingredients.
• Pour the dressing over the other ingredients and mix to combine.
• Serve immediately with the garnish of scallions.

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER AND BROCCOLI SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Chop the cauliflower into florets and place on a baking sheet. It can be lined with parchment paper for easier clean up but I find you get a better result when roasted directly on the pan.
• Drizzle the cauliflower with the lemon, oil and a pinch of salt and pepper and use your hands to mix until all the pieces are coated. Roast for 30 minutes until tender and browned.
• While the cauliflower is roasting, prepare the broccoli and tahini sauce. Steam the broccoli on the stovetop for 4-5 minutes until bright and tender-crisp.
• To make the tahini dressing, whisk all the ingredients together in a container until smooth and creamy. Adjust the amount of water used to reach a creamy but pourable consistency.
• Prepare 4 bowls or containers with a handful of fresh spinach. Once the veggies are ready, divide them between the bowls. Divide the seeds between the servings. Add 1/2 an avocado to each salad.
• Drizzle the tahini dressing equally over the 4 bowls.
• Serve right away topped with hot sauce, lemon juice, salt and pepper, if desired.

LEMON-PEPPER ROASTED BROCCOLI AND CAULIFLOWER

Steps:

• Combine broccoli, cauliflower, olive oil, lemon-pepper, seasoned salt, and red pepper flakes in a large bowl; stir well. Spread out evenly on a baking sheet.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Roast in the preheated oven for 12 minutes. Stir and roast until tender, about 12 minutes more.

GARLIC PARMESAN ROASTED BROCCOLI & CAULIFLOWER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F.
• Whisk oil, butter, crushed garlic, zest, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl.
• Add cauliflower to a large bowl along with half of the sauce and 3 tablespoons of Parmesan cheese. Toss until well coated.
• Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread cauliflower on the pan in a single layer. Bake in preheated oven for 8-10 minutes While cauliflower is roasting, add broccoli to the same large bowl along with the remaining sauce and 3 tablespoons of Parmesan cheese. Toss until well coated. Add broccoli to the baking sheet full of cauliflower and spread out evenly on the pan. Return to oven for 13-15 minutes, or until the edges begin to crisp up and brown slightly. Serve vegetables with the remaining Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley. Enjoy!

BROCCOLI OR CAULIFLOWER WITH A SOY-LEMON DRESSING

Steps:

• Using a sharp paring knife, peel the tough skin from the broccoli stems and cut away the stem ends.
• Cut off the florets and cut the peeled stems on the diagonal into 1 1/2-inch thick sections.
• Separate the larger florets so that all are approximately the same size.
• If cooking cauliflower, remove any leaves and break or cut into florets, about 1 1/2 inches wide.
• Arrange the broccoli or cauliflower in a steamer tray, or on a plate set on a rack.
• Fill a wok or pot with several inches of water and heat to boiling.
• Place the vegetable over the boiling water and steam 6-8 minutes, or until tender.
• I like my veggies crisp tender so I steam mine just a few minutes.
• Steam them till they're the way you like, check after 3-4 minutes.
• Drain any water from the broccoli or cauliflower.
• Put the vegetable in a serving bowl, add the dressing, toss lightly and serve.

CAULIFLOWER, BROCCOLI, OLIVE SALAD WITH A PARMESAN DRESSING

Steps:

• Dressing -- In a small bowl, mix the milk, mayo, parmesan, lemon juice, worcestershire, parsley, salt and pepper. Refrigerate until ready for use.
• Bacon -- In a small sauce pan over medium heat, saute the bacon until crispy and brown. Remove to a plate lined with a paper towel to drain. Keep for later.
• Vegetables -- Bring a large pot of water to a medium rolling boil. Salt well. Add the broccoli and cook 3-4 minutes until slightly tender, not soft. We are just blanching them. Remove and immediately immerse to a bowl filled with ice water and ice cubes. You want to stop the cooking process and keep the bright green color. Remove after a minute or so and let drain on a paper towel lined plate.
• Do the same for the cauliflower. Again, drain well.
• Salad -- Now I prefer this salad room temperature or even warm, but you can easily serve this chilled. You can warm up the vegetables right in the microwave for just a minute or so, or you them as soon as they are blanched, or even just served them chilled. Either way, they are all equally as good.
• Finish -- Just toss the broccoli, cauliflower, olives, fennel and onion in a medium size bowl, and mix to combine. Then add in a little dressing at a time until you reach the consistency you prefer. Some like it more creamy than others, so just add as much dressing as you like.
• Serve -- Just garnish with the bacon and you can also add fresh grated parmesan if you want.
• ENJOY!
