Main dish or salad? This delicious 20-minute veggie meal does double duty as both!

You may have noticed, I love cauliflower. With good reason, it’s tasty roasted, steamed, grilled… so many options. It combines with pasta perfectly, as in this Cauliflower Penné with Raisins & SunDried Tomatoes, or makes a yummy side dish like one of my favourites: Cauliflower Pineapple Fried Rice.

This Curried Cauliflower with Quinoa & Spinach is a flavour powerhouse. Like potatoes, cauliflower loves to soak up all the spices in a recipe. It’s a great choice for Meatless Monday that tastes even better the next day.

Curried-Cauliflower-with-Quinoa-and-Spinach_8 Curried Cauliflower with Quinoa and Spinach_6 This is a great dish to serve hot the first day or is even better served warm or cold as a lunch the next day. Packed with protein from the quinoa and a nutritional boost from the cauliflower and spinach, this is a good-for-you meal that both the kids and adults will love. Enjoy!
