Cannellini Beans Roasted Cauliflower In Lemon-Tahini
I could eat roasted cauliflower every night. It’s meaty yet savoury, delicate yet robust, not to mention bursting in anti-cancer properties thanks to it being part of the cruciferous family. So, seriously this is so good, this is the meal especially since it pairs so well with creamy cannellini beans. Serve with salad to get your green on.
Ingredients
