Grilled Cauliflower with Tahini is a flavorful dish inspired by Middle Eastern cuisine. It features tender, charred cauliflower florets tossed in a creamy tahini sauce made from ground sesame seeds, lemon juice, garlic, and olive oil. Often garnished with fresh parsley, pomegranate seeds, or a sprinkle of smoked paprika, this dish is celebrated for its balance of hearty and tangy flavors. Cauliflower is low in calories, high in fiber, and rich in vitamins C and K, making it a nutritious centerpiece. Tahini, while calorie-dense, offers healthy fats, protein, and essential minerals like calcium and magnesium. The olive oil adds heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, while lemon juice contributes vitamin C. However, moderation is key as tahini and olive oil can increase the dish’s calorie content. Perfect as a side or standalone meal, this dish is a wholesome choice for plant-based and Mediterranean-style eating.
