All of the FLAVOR (not to mention heat), but none of the guilt.
Lately, I have had a pinched for heat. Maybe it's the need to feel warm from this crazy winter. But since I have taken on this challenge to weigh less and be smart about my health I have had to think and look at "goodies" a little differently.
I love a good buffalo wing! But they tend to be oil and not all that great for you. I wanted some but I needed to find a way to get the flavor without all the bad stuff too. I went search and found a great site call skinny taste. LOVE IT!!
There she has a recipe for buffalo cauliflower. YUM!! The only thing is there is still butter in the sauce and I am really trying to limit the oils. So I came up with this, which uses, whole wheat flour instead of all purpose white flour and spray oil, which is very limited. My sauce seems to be a bit more spicy, but that's how I like it. :-)
