Gratin Cauliflower
Cauliflower is pretty popular these days, which makes sense because this veggie is super versatile. Even better, it's super nutritious.

It can be consumed raw, roasted in the oven, cooked in tomato paste (yiahni - the Greek version) etc. The following recipe is not only delicious but also high in protein.
