Whole Roasted Cauliflower with Cauli Crumble stuffing and Mushroom Gravy


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 whole cauliflower, core trimmed but leave intact (if there are leaves trim those off and keep for stir-frys, sauteed greens, or soups!)
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • Stuffing
  • 1 pack Big Mountain Foods Cauli Crumble Veggie Grounds
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 medium sized onion, diced
  • 23 stalks celery, diced
  • 1 bulb fennel, diced
  • 1 day old loaf sourdough or other bread
  • 2 cups vegetable stock
  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries
  • 45 leaves kale, ripped or cut into pieces (discard stems of use later for stock)
  • 45 leaves fresh sage
  • 1/4 cup vegan butter
  • 1 cup wild rice, cooked

  2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  3. Place oven on a baking sheet or casserole dish. Mix olive oil with smoked paprika, salt and pepper then brush evenly all over cauliflower.
  4. Cover with lid or foil and bake 1 hour then, remove lid or foil and continue to bake another 30 minutes until golden brown.
  5. For Stuffing:
  6. Set aside Cauli Crumble.
