Buffalo Sauce – I like to heat the buffalo sauce (Franks Garlic Buffalo is good) with a little butter then drizzle some on the cauliflower bites.

Slice the cauliflower directly through the stem, making slabs that are roughly 3/4-inch thick for stability. Don't try to slice them thinner than 1/2-inch thick, or they could fall apart when you roast them, and if you cut them more than 1-inch thick, they won't cook as quickly or evenly.

Unlike chicken wings, cauliflower is free of cholesterol and low in fat and saturated fat. It's also packed with fiber and antioxidants, making it a powerful food for heart health!

If your buffalo cauliflower bites are soggy, it's likely because they were not tossed with the sauce while hot. Be sure to add them to the bowl with the sauce as soon as they come out of the oven so that they stay nice and crispy.

While spotted cauliflower might not be the most attractive look, experts agree there's nothing dangerous about it unless the spots are very dark or widespread.

Moisture can lead to discoloration or decay of the cauliflower. You should also skip washing your cauliflower before storing it, but you should wash it once you're ready to use it. When properly stored, cauliflower can last up to three to five days in the fridge.
