PREPARATION

  • 1

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  • 2

    Break the cauliflower into florets. Steam or lightly roast until just tender, about 8-10 minutes if steaming, or 15 minutes if roasting with a light spray of olive oil.

  • 3

    While the cauliflower cooks, drain and pat dry the chickpeas. Toss the chickpeas with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Then, pulse them in a food processor until they form coarse, crumb-like pieces, taking care not to over-blend.

  • 4

    In a large bowl, combine the warm cauliflower with nonfat Greek yogurt and nutritional yeast. Adjust seasoning with a pinch of salt and pepper as needed.

  • 5

    Transfer the cauliflower mixture into an oven-safe dish. Sprinkle the crispy chickpea crumbs evenly over the top.

  • 6

    Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes until the chickpea crumbs become extra crisp and the flavors meld together.

  • 7

    Remove from the oven and serve immediately. Enjoy this nutritious, comforting dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
