As a kid, I would not eat cauliflower. I did not like the look, smell, or taste of it. But guess what? As an adult, I have found ways to enjoy it! I tried out a Cauliflower Pizza (recipe here) a few years ago and loved it! Then, I fell in love with roasting vegetables and decided to try roasting cauliflower to see how I would like it. If you haven’t tried it, then you must do so! I had a taste for buffalo wings one night, so I decided to try Roasted Buffalo Cauliflower. It turned out absolutely delicious! It was a great way for me get in my veggies while enjoying that “buffalo” flavor. There are several ways to enjoy Roasted Buffalo Cauliflower, but I kept it simple.
ROASTED BUFFALO CAULIFLOWER
Ingredients:
- I head/bag of florets, cut in florets
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
- 1/4 cup of buffalo wing sauce (I like Texas Pete!)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Blue Cheese or ranch for dipping (optional)
- Celery (optional)
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees
- Toss or brush cauliflower with olive oil, salt, and pepper
- Roast cauliflower in the oven for approximately 25-30 minutes or to your desired crispiness
- Toss cauliflower in buffalo wing sauce
- Serve and enjoy!
TO “ROAST” IN THE AIR FRYER:
To Roast in the Air Fryer, you don’t have to toss in olive oil, it’s totally optional (if you add your tsp to the air fryer). I personal don’t like to taste olive oil in my food. I just roasted the cauliflower for approximately 5 to 7 minutes to my desired textured then tossed in buffalo sauce.

I have yet to try cauliflower. I wonder if this would work with broccoli?
Artney says
Hmmm…I have had roasted broccoli and it’s really good. Not sure what it would be like with the buffalo sauce. It’s worth a try!

That looks awesome! There are a lot of befits I prefer raw, and if I can’t have them raw I like them roasted. I will have to give this a shot!

I wish I liked raw cauliflower, but if this is as close as I’m going to get…I’ll take it! Thank you!
