Cacio E Pepe Cauliflower Recipe

Recipe By Real Simple

Cacio e pepe is a classic italian pasta dish in which the starch from pasta water combines with pecorino cheese and black pepper to create a delicious sauce. Swap pasta and switch in cauliflower to pair with those amazing flavors for something simple, delicious, and healthy. Serve as a side with roasted chicken or hey, throw it back to the original inspiration and toss it with pasta. Shopping tip: pecorino is a hard sheeps milk cheese similar to parmesan, but much saltier. If you cant find pecorino at the grocery store, parmesan will work just as well.
