Turmeric-Spiced Cauliflower & Broccoli with Capers

Turmeric-Spiced Cauliflower & Broccoli with Capers

Published: Written by: The Team at NaturesPlus

Not a fan of broccoli? That’s probably because you’ve never had properly cooked broccoli.

“I believe most people think of mushy steamed veggies when presented with cruciferous vegetables, like cauliflower and broccoli,” says holistic nutritionist Torie Borrelli, author of The Mexican Keto Cookbook (Ten Speed). “Roasting is an easy way to prepare delicious veggies for the week without having to do too much.”

1 head cauliflower, cut into florets

1 head broccoli, cut into florets

3 tbsp slightly melted ghee*

1 tbsp turmeric powder

1/2 tsp kosher salt

1 tsp freshly ground black pepper

1/4 cup capers in water, drained (rinse, if in salt)

2 tbsp olive oil

1 tsp mustard seed powder (optional)

*Clarified butter; butter heated to remove the solids for an essentially dairy-free product.

1. Preheat the oven to 350°. In a large bowl, toss the cauliflower and broccoli with the butter, turmeric, salt and pepper. Place the veggies on a baking sheet, using your hands or a wooden spoon to spread them evenly so they are not touching.
2. Place the baking sheet on the lowest oven rack and bake for 25 minutes, or until golden.
3. Remove from the oven and toss in a bowl with the capers, olive oil and mustard seed powder (if using).

Yields: 4–6 servings
