INGREDIENTS
4 cups Cauliflower Florets (~600g)
1 cup Chickpeas, rinsed and drained (~164g)
4 tablespoons Nutritional Yeast
1/2 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Hemp Seeds
1 tablespoon Extra Nutritional Yeast
2 garlic cloves
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
On a baking sheet, toss the rinsed chickpeas with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them out in a single layer and roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until crispy, stirring halfway through.
Meanwhile, steam the cauliflower florets until very tender, about 10-12 minutes. Transfer the steamed cauliflower to a large bowl.
Add almond milk, garlic, and the 4 tablespoons of nutritional yeast to the cauliflower. Mash or blend until you achieve a smooth, creamy texture. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Transfer the cauliflower mash into a serving dish as a base.
Top evenly with the crispy roasted chickpeas, then sprinkle over the hemp seeds and the extra tablespoon of nutritional yeast for an additional burst of flavor.
Serve warm and enjoy your nutrient-packed, protein-rich meal!
