Happy Monday, guys! If you follow me on social media, you know I just got back from Miami yesterday. I attended the Cauliflower Pesto Toasts! Incredibly easy to make and delicious! Bits of raw cauliflower with olives, sun dried tomatoes, garlic and more. These toasts are delicious!

I know the pesto isn’t the prettiest thing to look at. .  but you guys, this is so delicious! and everything in here is raw. You can sauté this if you’d like before putting this on your little toasts, but I personally love the freshness of this pesto raw.

    Your Miami pics were incredible! The sunshine was very enticing along with all the food celebs you met. What a great trip!
    I love my mini food processor. And I’ve never made cauliflower pesto, so that is going to have to happen!

    What a great change from an olive tapenade. I absolutely want to compare raw to sautéed.

    Cauliflower pesto? Why Alice – that’s pretty EPIC! I cannot – simply cannot wait to hear about your Miami trip – I’ve seen quite a few of the pictures you’ve been posting and cannot wait to hear who was there/wasn’t there because you seemed to rub shoulders with all of FoodNetwrok royalty!
