There are so many wonderful things you can do with cauliflower. I usually sautee it with some olive oil and spices and call it a day. I thought why not twist it up a bit! This is such a good side dish for any occasion, and the possibilities are endless!
Ingredients:
8 cups of spinach
2 shallots, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
6 tablespoons olive oil
1 package bacon, chopped
1 head cauliflower, cut into whole pieces
Salt & Pepper
1 tablespoon paprika
1 teaspoon cayenne
1 small package of sage (optional)
Heat large skillet with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add the garlic and shallots, stir until tender. Add the spinach, batches at a time. You will see that all that spinach is not that much at all when cooked! Place spinach to the side and cover so it stays hot.
In another large skillet, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the bacon, and cook for about 15 minutes until brown and crispy. Place the bacon on a dish to cool.
The same pan as where the bacon was, add 3 tablespoons of olive oil. Add the cauliflower pieces, and fry on high until golden brown for about 10 minutes. Add in all the spices.
Use a platter, and layer starting with spinach at the bottom. Then top with cauliflower, and finally garnish with as much bacon as your heart desires:)
(optional)Fry up the sage with a tablespoon of olive oil, garnish with this as well.
This goes great with any meat or fish!
