Health Benefits of Cauliflower

What if I told you, you can take a pill, only 3 to 4 times a week and this pill will dramatically reduce your chance of getting breast, colon, prostate, and ovarian caver? Would you take it? What if I told you that cauliflower does just that! It is true. Cauliflower is one of those vegetables that should be called super-food. Various studies have shown that the bioactive components of cruciferous vegetables can have beneficial effects on biomarkers of cancer-related (breast, colon, prostate, and ovarian cancer) processes in people. Additionally, cauliflower helps to detoxify your liver. Pretty amazing isn’t it?!

1 tin chickpeas (Also known as garbanzo beans. Always use BPA free lining tins.)
3–4 tbsp olive oil (extra virgin)

½ tsp salt
coriander to serve

Instructions

Start with washing your cauliflower and drying it with a clean towel. Heat oven to 200° (400°F)
Cut the cauliflower into the bite-sized florets and put it in the large mixing bowl. If you have a very fresh cauliflower and have green leaves, you can roast them as well.
Rinse the chickpeas and add them to the bowl with the cauliflower.
Now add the olive oil and spices and toss them with your hands to combine. Make sure everything is evenly coated with spices.
Add parchment paper (if using) to the baking tray and transfer cauliflower and chickpeas onto the tray. Spread it out evenly.
Bake it for 20-30 minutes tossing them one or two times. All ovens are different so please see when cauliflower turns golden brown. It might take a little longer.
Remove from the oven and serve!
