Awesome
This is really fabulous! Just the right amount of smoky and spicy. I will be making this again. The smoky mayo can have so many other uses! Consider over proteins, rice, or anything! Thanks Ree!
My husband and I are not fans of cauliflower normally, but this recipe makes us believers. Smoky, spicy, satisfying!!!
Definitely a favorite delicious! I skipped the mayo and put it on a salad with carrots celery and blue cheese yummy!
This will be a favorite immediately ! Amazing flavors , I could eat the entire bowl….smokey and a nice hint of spice !
This sauce is amazing!!!
Very tasty!
So delicious! I put my cauliflower and spices in a gallon bag and shook it together for a better coating instead of on the tray. The only part I got confused on was chilli and adobo amount because there are different sized cans. I bought a 7 oz. can and removed the chillies and diced them up first and then added the 1 TBS of sauce and that was enough! I would maybe add cojita cheese on top next time because it reminded me of a spicy elote. Saving my left over sauce to marinaded chicken tonight!
Excellent & easy!
So much flavor! Made exactly as instructed. I was excited when I saw this recipe this morning and knew I had all the ingredients. The sauce is delicious. It would be great on tacos or even a fry sauce. Will definitely make again. Thanks Ree!
