Roast perfect cauliflower florets in a maple-ginger teriyaki glaze until caramelized and sticky. This hearty, plant-based bowl is easy for weeknights. Full instructions and nutrition facts included.

  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large head cauliflower, cut into bite-sized florets
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce (or tamari)
  • 2 Tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp ground ginger
  • 1 cup dry brown rice
  • 1 cup frozen shelled edamame
  • 1 tsp sesame seeds, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Cook the brown rice according to package instructions, setting it aside once done.
  2. Step 2: Toss the cauliflower florets with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread the seasoned cauliflower in a single layer on a lined baking sheet and roast for 15 minutes.
  3. Step 3: While the cauliflower roasts, prepare the teriyaki glaze by whisking together the soy sauce, maple syrup, and ground ginger in a small bowl.
  4. Step 4: Remove the cauliflower from the oven, pour the teriyaki glaze over the florets, and toss gently to ensure an even coating. Return the cauliflower to the oven and roast for an additional 8-10 minutes until caramelized and tender.
  5. Step 5: Steam or microwave the shelled edamame according to package instructions.
  6. Step 6: To assemble the power bowls, divide the cooked brown rice among serving bowls. Top the rice equally with the roasted teriyaki cauliflower and the steamed edamame. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Store leftover roasted cauliflower and rice separately in airtight containers for up to 4 days, recombining only when ready to eat for the best texture.
  • Reheat the leftover teriyaki cauliflower in an air fryer or toaster oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 5 minutes to restore a pleasant crispness that microwaving typically takes away.
  • For extra richness and color, serve the bowl topped with a drizzle of sriracha mayo, or add some sliced avocado to balance the glaze's sweetness.
  • To achieve deep caramelization, do not overcrowd the cauliflower in the first roasting step, and always wait until the second stage to apply the glaze, preventing the florets from steaming instead of roasting.
