recipe: buffalo cauliflower wings
Superbowl Sunday is here and although I can’t say I am the biggest fan of football (sorry but not sorry, lol!), I do have some love for Superbowl food like these buffalo cauliflower wings. The first time I had these was at California Pizza Kitchen months ago and both my husband and I were addicted. While I love all things buffalo flavored, I never was into cauliflower so much.
Especially not cooked…that changed when buffalo cauliflower came into my world. At CPK, they serve the cauliflower with some thinly sliced celery and a really good blue cheese dressing. It’s a perfect combination of so many flavors that are so delicious. It’s filling but not overly.
Loved it so much that I just had to recreate it at home a few weeks ago – sorry, I don’t have pictures in this post since they were gobbled up so fast and I honestly wasn’t thinking about a recipe post. Anyways, I think they taste very close to the ones at CPK. What’s for sure is that these will be the hit of any super bowl party and your friends will definitely become fans, even the “I only eat chicken wings” lovers out there! Perfect Superbowl and party food in my opinion = these buffalo cauliflower wings…so easy to pull together, a fun finger food and so tasty. I served mine up with celery sticks and a blue cheese dressing I got from Trader Joe’s – it was devoured!!
