Print RecipeFor Cauliflower:
- Preheat your oven to 450 degrees.
- Place cauliflower pieces uniformly spaced on a baking sheet lined with unbleached parchment paper (optional for easier cleanup).
- Toss cauliflower pieces in avocado oil, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika.
- Roast the cauliflower in the oven for 15 minutes or until golden brown and crisp at the edges.
For Salsa:
- In a bowl, combine minced shallot, minced jalapeno, chopped cilantro, diced tomatoes, lime juice, cumin, and salt. Stir until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
- Store in the refrigerator or set aside.
For Avocado Sauce:
- In a food processor or blender, combine avocado, olive oil, lime juice, dried onion, hot sauce, brown mustard, and Italian seasoning. Blend until smooth and creamy.

- Drizzle the Avocado Sauce over the roasted cauliflower.
- Spoon the Salsa generously on top.
- Garnish with fresh cilantro, a squeeze of lime juice, and thinly sliced jalapenos.
