When I first discovered this dip on Pinterest, I looked at it, but did not pin it. Then I came across it again and thought more about it and decided to pin it. Not long after that I decided to make it, but was still unsure about a dip made with cauliflower. Now it did have plenty of cream cheese, plus the buffalo sauce, but a dip made with cauliflower.
Well after trying it I have to say I am glad I made it. It is really good and nobody would ever know it was made with cauliflower unless you told them. It is just a creamy and spicy dip.
While I was shopping for this dip I discovered this orange cauliflower. I never knew such a thing existed. It tasted the same as "regular" white cauliflower and it happened to be cheaper. It was fun to try a new color of cauliflower.
