Cauliflower

EverydayFresh

Cauliflower is a versatile cruciferous vegetable recognized for its dense, compact head of undeveloped white florets. This low-carb, gluten-free vegetable serves as a popular substitute for grains and starches when riced or puréed, while providing significant fiber, vitamin C, and antioxidants like sulforaphane. Its neutral flavor and sturdy texture make it adaptable to roasting, steaming, or raw consumption, with purple, orange, and green varieties offering additional phytonutrients.
