This recipe is so perfect for the holidays. The crust on the cauliflower is a mixture of cashews, yellow curry powder, olive oil, salt, pepper and lemon. However, since this is a plant based recipe, you can flavor the cashew mixture however you’d like! Maybe a more traditional rosemary thyme instead of curry? Let me know if you try it!
