BANG BANG

My mother is a Saint.

She is by far the most important person in my life (followed by Daddy Wags). She has been there from day one of this journey. Not just my fitness journey, but my entire journey. She is my rock. My person. My heart.

Moving right along...

Mom and I have started a Sunday evening tradition. We cook for the entire week. This has helped me in numerous aspects.
#1-She has taught me to actually cook
#2-It has kept me accountable
#3-We find fun recipes for each other
#4-It forces me to eat clean
#5-It has proven that if you start the week in a positive light, the rest of the week follows suite.

This week we had a definite Pinterest WIN!

Bang Bang cauliflower! If you have ever has bang bang shrimp its the same, minus the calories. This may put it into perspective for you....Bang bang shrimp on Weight Watchers is 27 points...Yes, I Said 27...Sooo good yet so bad.
So, I found a healthy alternative!

Take a big old head of cauliflower
Cut into pretty big chunks
Dunk in a bath of eggs
Roll in Panko bread crumbs
Set the oven to 400 degrees
Cook 20(ish) minutes--or until golden brown

THE BANG BANG sauce aka...the most important part
1/2C light or fat free mayo
2 big dollops of Chili Sauce
1 big spoon full of honey
and hot sauce to make it as spicy as you want
I used Sriracha and Franks
Mix that up

Drizzle over your cauliflower...

It was so good that even my brother gave me props, and that never happens.

If you try it...Let me know!!
