You can still get your nacho fix except with cauliflower! Except this is healthier, heartier and so stinking good. And you can make this on one single sheet pan. Easiest nachos EVER!!!
When 2018 hit, I said I would give up nachos and donuts.
Neither resolution has really stuck.
I just went to my favorite donut shop this morning (and it wasn’t my first visit of 2018) and asked for $1 worth of donut holes. The owner kind of loves me so he always gives me extra.
I said, “Not too much. I’m putting on weight!”
Then he handed over the bag of donut holes. Which was clearly like $5 worth of donut holes.
Then I came home to this.
Cauliflower nachos.
I needed to make up for the donuts so I subbed out half the tortilla chips for perfectly roasted and seasoned cauliflower florets.
So I don’t feel guilty about this at all.
Hey, tomatoes, beans, jalapenos, onion and guacamole – that’s all good-for-you-toppings, no?
