Sticky Sesame Baked Cauliflower Recipe #2 for Jan

Sticky Sesame Baked Cauliflower

Recipe #2 for January’s cookbook club selection, One: Pot, Pan, Planet by Anna Jones.

This one was really tasty and my husband and I enjoyed it for lunch. It came together pretty easily and quickly, so this would be a good weeknight dinner atop rice (as suggested in the recipe) or soba noodles. It’s also fairly healthy, with only 1 Tbsp oil in the whole recipe and no refined sugar or white flour.

A few notes: I used substantially more water than what the recipe called for when making the cauliflower batter (atleast 1 c, maybe more)… so keep adding liquid until it’s the consistency of pancake batter!
I cooked mine at 425 (not 400, as written in recipe) and used the cook times as written. It still wasn’t crispy enough for me, so I think next time I’ll try cooking the cauliflower in the air fryer before I toss with the sauce.
I used plain leftover rice in my fridge, so did not cook rice as written in recipe.
Have you made this recipe? What do you think? It’s online for anyone who is curious but doesn’t own the book:

Happy New Year, friends! If one of your intentions

Happy New Year, friends! If one of your intentions for 2023 is to cook more, yay! You’re in the right place 😉 I’m starting up a super informal, relatively loosey goosey cookbook club, if you’re interested. It’s free, there’s no sign up process, and basically the only guideline is to try and cook new recipes from a new book each month.
I’m starting this club because a) I have an ever expanding cookbook collection that I want to make better use of and b) I, too, get in cooking ruts and end up making the same 6-7 meals over. And over. And over. I’m ready to try new things, experience another person’s spin on familiar recipes, expand my repertoire.
I can’t reprint the exact recipes I’ll be making from each book due to copyright stuff, but if you already own the book, or want to purchase it/borrow it from your local library, I’ll share what I’m making that month and you can cook along with me! It’ll be a fun little challenge, I hope.
These cookbooks are not all exclusively vegan (though most of them are), but they all contain plenty of vegan or easily veganizable recipes.
If you decide to join me, make sure you tag me in your cookbook club posts and use the hashtag #plantmagiccookbookclub 👩🏻‍🍳

Having the best weekend in the best city with the best guy (and eating an obscene amount of good food in the process - @spicymoonnyc being the highlight).

It’s been a while since I’ve posted on my feed! If you’re looking for me, I’m usually on stories, but even more so, you can find me on Substack publishing my newsletter, Plant Magic (subscribe via the link in my bio). I just posted this must-try recipe for Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Banana Bread - it tastes decadent but is full of wholesome ingredients and packs in so much nutrition and fiber 🤤 🎃 🍫 🍌- get the recipe for free by subscribing! I’m also running a sale until October 10 for 25% off annual subscriptions (it comes out to about $3/month and I am regularly putting out quality exclusive content, including recipes you can’t find anywhere else).
Hope your fall is off to a great start 🍂

I’m a true Northeast gal, as I love cooler weath

I’m a true Northeast gal, as I love cooler weather, wear jeans year round, and have an outerwear addiction, but ok, fine, summer makes for pretty good eating. Hit up those farmstands and get creative, friends! Simpler is better when the food is this fresh and good. 😋

Cooking is so much more than providing a means to satiate our appetites. Aside from food’s incredible ability to heal our bodies (which you know I luuuurv to talk about), it’s a way to provide comfort and joy to those you love. It’s been a painful, confusing week and I’m hoping that these raw Strawberries & Cream Cheesecake Bars 🍰 can bring a little bit of sunshine to your long weekend. You don’t have to turn on the stove, and they come together really easily. Super creamy and decadent tasting, they’re made from simple, whole plant foods so no terrible sugar crashes or digestive discomfort here 🙏🏻🙌🏻. Strawberries 🍓 are in season now, so get on these while those lil beauties are at your local farmstand! Recipe over at @vitacost now, via the link below.
