I think I eat cauliflower every day... Just bought some of the yellow to try!  

what is the red kind? what's the difference? 

Purple cauliflower gets its beautiful hue, which can vary from pale to jewel-toned, from the presence of the antioxidant anthocyanin, which is also found in red cabbage and red wine. The orange/yellow cauliflower comes from a genetic mutation that allows the plant to hold more beta carotene. It also contains about 25% more vitamin A than white cauliflower. I roast it, steam it, mash it, rice it or make it into a soup. 

Beautiful! I eat roasted cauliflower all the time :) 

I ♥ it! 

Beautiful! One of my four mainstays.
