Kiss: Potatoes w/Cheesy Cauliflower


KISS: Potatoes w/Cheesy Cauliflower

  KISS: Keep It Super Simple! 

I know there is typically another "S" to that saying, but we don't need that negativity in our lives.

This is a brand new series in which I share super simple meal ideas; because we vegans tend to get so buried in complex recipes that we forget that a meal can simply consist of a starch/grain and a veggie and be perfectly satisfying.

I pair each of these meals with a simple side salad and that's it! As a recovering bulk meal creator, I was quite skeptical that these meals would be filling enough, but just try it, you'll be amazed.

Keep it Healthy!


 




Ingredients:

I like to steam-prep my Potatoes using the InstantPot for 1-2 minutes at the beginning of the week and then storing in the fridge for latter in the week. 

I slice the Potatoes in half & finish cooking in the Airfryer at 400 degrees for 20 minutes. Serve with Hummus.

Meanwhile lightly steam Cauliflower in the microwave for 2-10 minutes, timing depends on the size, until tender. Finish by roasting in the oven at 400 degrees for 20-25 minutes.   Add about an inch of Water to the baking dish prior to steaming.

Make the Cheese Sauce.

That's it! Plate & eat!
