tahini

I’ve been on a cauliflower kick recently…but how can you blame me when it’s such a versatile and easy to make ingredient? This time I’m sharing a new recipe I tried that got rave reviews a few times in a row – this Harissa-Tahini Roasted Cauliflower.

I based it off a menu description I saw at a cafe. I didn’t order it at the time so all I had to go on were the listed ingredients and a few Google searches!

Did you know that tahini is one of the foods with the highest amounts of non-dairy calcium? Sesame seeds contain 88mg of calcium per tablespoon (that equals almost 10% of your RDV if you’re a woman)! Tahinini is also a source of healthy mono- and polyunsaturated fats and is also a source of plant-based iron.
