Roasted Cauliflower, Pomegranate, Cilantro, and Pistachio Salad
This is a delicious and festive looking salad. Feel free to vary the herb and nut used to suit your taste. I like to serve this warm or at room temperature.

Ingredients
- 1 head cauliflower cut into florets
- 2 tablespoons avocado oil
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 pomegranate seeds removed, divided
- 1/4 cup parsley minced or cilantro, or a mixture of the two
- 1/4 cup pistachios toasted and chopped
- zest of 1 lime or lemon
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425ºF and line a rimmed baking sheet with foil. Add the cauliflower and avocado oil and toss cauliflower with the oil and season to taste with salt and pepper. Bake for 20-25 minutes at 425ºF, or until golden and browned in places.
- While the cauliflower is baking, create the pomegranate glaze. Juice half of the pomegranate seeds, reserving the second half for the salad. Add the juice to a small pan and cook until reduced to about 1 tablespoon. Add sweetener to taste, if desired (a tablespoon of allulose works well). Set aside.
- Transfer the cauliflower to a serving plate. Sprinkle with cilantro, pomegranate seeds, pistachios, and zest. Drizzle with the reduced pomegranate syrup and serve.
