    Paleo vegetables that are as filling as they are nutritious? Cauliflower is but one of them; in fact, you can eat as much of it as you want, just as much as makes you feel full!

    It makes for an excellent base for a grain-free pizza or a creamy roasted cauliflower and sweet potato soup. It can also become a spice-filled side dish to serve alongside your protein of choice - it is such a versatile vegetable.

    Roasted Curry Cauliflower

    The benefits of cauliflower may surprise you, and it is not only found in white; you can sometimes find green, purple and orange cauliflower as well, each with its own additional array of nutrients.

    The florets have potent antioxidants that help our bodies survive the stresses of managing a healthy work-life balance, and the abundant phytochemicals stimulate cancer-blocking enzymes.

    No matter how you cook it, your body will thank you. With these curry spices, you will be adding ginger, cinnamon, coriander, and cumin, as well as turmeric, which is highly anti-inflammatory and full of gut-healing power.

    This immune-boosting meal also calls for ¼ tsp. of sumac, an essential spice used in Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cooking, and if you don't have any on hand, you are free to omit it. If you can find it, though, we highly recommend it as you can also use it to spice the most aromatic pomegranate-roasted chicken.
