Chef's Note

This recipe demonstrates two key blog concepts: roasting cauliflower to manage moisture (preventing 'veggie mush') and using miso paste to provide an umami punch that allows us to skip added salt entirely.

Ingredients
  • 1 large Large cauliflower head, riced

  • 1 tablespoon Olive oil

  • 1 teaspoon Ground cumin

  • 15 ounce Canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed

  • 1/2 cup Plain non-fat Greek yogurt

  • 1 tablespoon White miso paste

  • 2 tablespoons Lemon juice

  • 1 clove Garlic, minced

  • 1 cup English cucumber, diced

  • 1 cup Cherry tomatoes, halved

  • 1/4 cup Fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions
  • 1

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

  • 2

    Spread the riced cauliflower onto the baking sheet. Toss with olive oil and cumin. Roast for 15-20 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the moisture has evaporated and the edges are slightly golden.

  • 3

    While the cauliflower roasts, prepare the dressing by whisking together the Greek yogurt, white miso paste, lemon juice, and minced garlic in a small bowl. If the dressing is too thick, add water one teaspoon at a time until reaching desired consistency.

  • 4

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the roasted cauliflower 'rice' with the chickpeas, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, and red onion (if using).

  • 5

    Divide the mixture into four bowls.

  • 6

    Drizzle the miso-yogurt dressing over each bowl and garnish generously with fresh parsley before serving.
