OK just the Brain Food here! This is a take off of my Roasted Cauliflower & 16 Roasted Cloves of Garlic using a different method to keep it looking like a brain for Halloween. Do take note all microwaves cook differently so take care when roasting not to over do. Oh by the way cauliflower is Brain food! A recent study done by McLean Hospital, an affiliate of Harvard Medical School, suggests that taking a minimum of 500mg of citicoline supplements a day can help boost mental energy and efficacy. Citicoline, a natural substance found in all living cells, can also be ingested via cauliflower—a source of choline, which is converted to citicoline in the brain! Ingredients:
1 large cauliflower |
16 garlic cloves, peeled and lightly crushed |
1 -2 teaspoon minced fresh rosemary |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/4-1/2 teaspoon black pepper |
1/4 cup olive oil |
