INGREDIENTS
1 medium head Cauliflower (~600g)
350g Extra Firm Tofu
50g Chickpea Flour
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Unsalted Butter
2 tbsp Hot Sauce
0.75 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Garlic Powder
1 tsp Paprika
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the cauliflower into bite-sized florets. Press and cube the extra firm tofu into similar sized pieces.
In a large bowl, whisk together the chickpea flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Slowly add water (about 3-4 tablespoons) to create a smooth batter that lightly coats the vegetables and tofu. Adjust thickness if necessary.
Toss the cauliflower florets and tofu cubes in the batter until evenly coated.
Spread the coated pieces on the baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway, until the edges become crisp.
Meanwhile, prepare the buffalo sauce by melting the unsalted butter in a small saucepan on low heat. Stir in the hot sauce until well combined.
Once the cauliflower and tofu are baked, transfer them to a large bowl and drizzle with the buffalo sauce. Toss gently to ensure even coating.
For the dip, simply serve the nonfat Greek yogurt in a small bowl – you may season with a pinch of salt and pepper if desired.
Plate the crispy buffalo cauliflower and tofu bites alongside the Greek yogurt dip and enjoy while warm.
