Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 Head of Cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 1 Cup Wondra flour
  • 1 Cup Skim milk
  • 1/2 Tsp. Garlic powder
  • 1/2 Tsp. Onion powder
  • 1+  Tsp. Kosher Salt
  • 20+ Grinds freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 Cup Panko
  • 1 Cup Lite Blue Cheese dressing
  • 1 Cup Sugar free BBQ sauce
  • 1+  Tsp. Hot pepper Sauce
  • Cooking Spray

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Cover a baking sheet with parchment paper and top with a rack. Spray the rack with cooking spray.
  • Add the BBQ sauce of your choice and the hot sauce into a small saucepan and heat over a low heat. You’ll pour that into a small bowl and put the blue cheese dressing in a separate bowl for serving when the cauliflower bites are ready.
  • Mix the flour, milk garlic powder, onion power, teaspoon of salt and 20 grinds of black pepper in a large bowl. Whisk until combined.
  • In a separate bowl, mix the panko with a large pinch of salt and several grinds of black pepper.
  •  Dip a cauliflower floret into the batter to coat. Let the excess drip off. Then roll in the panko to completely coat. Place on the prepared rack. Continue until all the cauliflower florets are coated and on the rack.
  • Spray the breaded cauliflower with cooking spray and place in the oven. Bake for 25-30 minutes until starting to brown. Finish under the broiler for two minutes until golden brown.
  • Serve on a platter with the dipping sauces and enjoy.
