Buffalo Caulifower

I love Buffalo Chicken! The Buffalo sauce is definitely the star for me in this dish.  The combination of the tangy/spicy yummy sauce on the pretty blend chicken,  is turning this dish (or usually basket in a Sports Bar)  into something I really want to eat.  This is why I was intrigued by his recipe the minute I stumbled upon it on Facebook. 
Skinnytaste.com  posted it on Facebook  where saw it a couple days ago. I eat meat, but I always preferred vegetables. This is just a perfect veggie option for me.

The recipe is originally of Peta's website. 


One thing to note, if you are watching your sodium, you'll have to look for a lower sodium hot sauce, or use half of the sauce. Frank's is my favorite for buffalo sauce, but it's not low in sodium. If anyone knows of a lower sodium buffalo sauce, kindly share!
