Catherine is a big football fan. Every year, she loves to host a get-together with friends to watch football.
However, she hates eating chicken wings because removing the small bones takes too much work, and the pile of bones that accumulates kills her appetite.
So she presents to you the cauliflower wings recipe she has adopted, which, in addition to being economical and good for your health, will delight your vegetarian and vegan loved ones.
