Buffalo Cauliflower "Wings" and Healthy Blue Cheese Dip

Why didn't I make these for the superbowl???? No idea...but I am definitely going to make them for the superbowl for next year...or I guess the next "wing" occasion. These were flat out delicious. Except, I used extra spicy buffalo sauce thinking I could handle it...well I fooled myself with that one! I couldn't continuously eat them...but I loved eating them in doses haha.

These cauliflower wings taste like buffalo wings but obviously have the texture of fried cauliflower (but it is not fried, it is baked). So a.k.a. delicious. I got the recipe off of pinterest, but it was a pin so I do not have a direct source...but here is the recipe so you all can enjoy a healthier alternative to wings at home!

Recipe for the "Wings":

Ingredients:

• 1 cup water or unsweetened almond milk
• 1 cup flour (any kind--I used gluten-free)
• 2 teaspoons garlic powder
• 1 head of cauliflower, chopped into pieces (however big you want your "wings")
• 1 cup buffalo or hot sauce
• 1 tablespoon olive oil

Directions:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F
• Combine the water or almond milk, flour, and garlic powder in a bowl. Stir until combined. 
• Coat the cauliflower pieces with the flour mixture and place in a shallow baking dish
• Bake for 18 minutes
• While cauliflower is baking, combine your hot sauce and olive oil in a small bowl
• Pour hot sauce mixture over cauliflower when its done and bake for another 5-8 minutes
• Serve with the blue cheese dip

Recipe for the Blue Cheese Dip:

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup Greek Yogurt (plain)
• 1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons blue cheese
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

• Mix all ingredients together
• Add more blue cheese on top to garnish

Enjoy :)
