How to Grill Cauliflower

How long should I grill cauliflower?

You should plan on grilling your cauliflower for about 20 minutes. If you do less time, it will have more crunch to it and if you do more time, it will be softer in texture.

What if I don’t have a grill pan?

If you don’t have a grill pan, don’t fret. You can simply use this aluminum foil hack instead!

Make a “bowl” and set the cauliflower on it. Leave it open on top to be charred. If you want it to be less charred, you can seal up the tinfoil for a more steamed effect and texture.

How to Store Leftovers

Once it is cooled, stored them in an airtight container and keep them in the fridge.

Eating it within 48 hours after being grilled is a safe bet. Any longer than that and it might not hold their shape or taste as much.

How to Reheat Leftovers

You can reheat it on low in a pan on the stove or simply put it in the microwave for about 30 seconds.
