Super Bowl Sunday - Go Whichever Team Wins!

It's Superbowl Sunday and I don't know who's even playing!  But...I do know what I'm eating!

I always love this Sunday...hanging with friends, drinking beer, eating chips & dip as a meal!   Hello!?!  Awesome-town!

With my new-found food restrictions, I scoured the internet for something resembling a "regular" football-watching munchie and I found this:




Buffalo Cauliflower Wing Pizza with Tofu Blue Cheese Spread  

From Kristy at Keepin' It Kind
Vegan & Gluten Free! 

What you'll need: 

1. Cornmeal Crust (I used Vicolo - small 2pack) - in frozen section of your health food stores
2. Recipe for Tofu Blue Cheese Spread (found below)
3. Recipe for Buffalo Cauliflower Wing Topping (found below)


Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 475.  Lightly grease a baking sheet or line with parchment paper.
  • Spread a layer of tofu blue cheese spread on the prepared crust, using as much or as little as you like.  You will most likely have leftovers.  Spread the buffalo cauliflower wings out on top of the blue cheese spread.  You will likely have a few of these leftover as well- they’re great appetizers for while you wait for the pizza.
Bake at 475 for 12-15 minutes, until heated thoroughly.  Remove from oven and serve hot.



 The Sriracha and BBQ sauce, mixed with the "blue cheese" really tastes like you're treating yourself to a wing!  yum!  Enjoy!

Tofu Blue Cheese: 

 Ingredients:

  • ½ block of extra firm tofu, crumbled into small pieces
  • 2 T nutritional yeast
  • 1 T veganaise
  • juice of 1 lemon
  • 3 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tsp white miso
  • ½ tsp tahini
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ¼ tsp dried oregano
  • ¼ tsp dried marjoram
  • ¼ tsp kelp granules
  • a few dashes of salt
Instructions:
  • Place the tofu crumbles into a medium bowl.  Add the rest of the ingredients and stir to combine.  Chill until ready to use.  Enjoy!
*You may need to adjust the seasonings to fit your preferences.  This was slightly on the mild side for me.


Buffalo Cauliflower Wing Topping:

Ingredients:

  • 1 head cauliflower, broken into florets
  • 1 cup almond milk
  • 1 cup chickpea flour
  • several dashes of garlic powder
  • several dashes of smoked paprika
  • ¾ cup  barbecue sauce (we used Organicville)
  • 1/4 cup Sriracha sauce (or other hot sauce)
  • 1 tbsp arrowroot powder (or whatever starch you’ve got)
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees.  Lightly grease or spray a glass 9 x 13 casserole dish with olive oil spray.
  • Whisk almond milk and chickpea flour together.  Dredge cauliflower pieces into flour mixture and place in the casserole dish.  Bake at 450 degrees for 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, mix together the BBQ sauce, Sriracha sauce, arrowroot, salt and pepper.
  • Once cooked, toss cauliflower with BBQ mix and bake for an additional 5 to 8 minutes.  Remove from heat and serve hot (or use on pizza).  Enjoy!
