Waffled Cauliflower With Thyme Parmesan And Creamy Lemon Sauce

April 9, 2016 by Trina Marie

Waffled Cauliflower with Lemon Sauce

I’m currently dancing around the kitchen…K I’m done! Creating new delicious recipes gets me all excited and I love that I now have the opportunity to share this recipe with you. I wanted something healthier and different from the usual breakfast category, check and check. I wanted crisp, crunch, tang and creamy all in one bite, done! Serving these amazing cauliflower waffles with sliced tomatoes makes for a complete breakfast that has more flavor than I anticipated. You betcha, when I poured over the lemon sauce it took this creative waffle and made it a genius waffle. Not only did I feel good after eating this healthy breakfast, I burned some extra calories doing my happy dance in the kitchen. After indulging in my new guilt free creation I then proceeded to ask my hubby his opinion and I quote, “You should call them I ain’t got no dough waffles”, but in all seriousness he enjoyed the cauliflower waffles very much and said the tomatoes paired excellent with the dish.

Whether your gluten sensitive, trying to eat less carbs, searching for a healthier or new creative breakfast this Waffled Cauliflower With Thyme Parmesan And Creamy Lemon Sauce is the perfect meal. I’m confident it will impress toddlers, husbands and anyone who enjoys eating waffled foods. Also, this meal works beautifully made the night before and reheated the next morning, you can’t say that about many dishes(in my opinion)!
