ROASTED CAULIFLOWER WITH BACON RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 400 F. Toss the cauliflower in a medium-sized baking dish with some cooking fat and roast it in the oven for 20 minutes. While the cauliflower is cooking, fry the bacon in a skillet over a medium-high heat, until just done. Then remove it from the heat and chop it into bite-sized pieces when cool enough to handle. Once the cauliflower has cooked for 20 minutes, add the bacon to the baking dish and cook for another 5 minutes, until the bacon is nice and crispy. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and sprinkle with the green onion on top to serve.

GRILLED CAULIFLOWER WITH BACON AND BRIE

Steps:

• In a medium saute pan over medium-high heat, cook the bacon until the fat has rendered and the bacon is crispy, 7 to 8 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove the bacon from the pan and place on a paper towel-lined plate. Reduce heat to medium, then add the flour to the fat in the pan and whisk until smooth. Cook, stirring often, until nutty and fragrant, 3 to 4 minutes. Pour in the milk in a slow steady stream while whisking constantly. Whisk until smooth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer 7 to 8 minutes. Stir in the Brie, 1 teaspoon of the salt and the nutmeg, stirring until the Brie is melted. Add 3/4 of the bacon and stir to combine. Remove from the heat and keep warm while you prepare the cauliflower.
• Preheat a grill to medium high and wipe down the grates with a towel dipped in canola oil to clean and create a nonstick surface. Drizzle the cauliflower florets with olive oil and season with the remaining 1 teaspoon salt and the pepper. Grill cauliflower until it is caramelized and charred on all sides, 7 to 8 minutes. Remove from the grill and place on a large platter. While still hot, spoon the bacon and Brie mixture over the top. Garnish with the remaining crispy bacon and parsley.
