Baked Sticky Orange Cauliflower and Quinoa 
[Vegan]

For the Cauliflower:

1. Preheat your oven to 450°F and prepare your baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a medium bowl, add water, flour, sea salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, dried parsley, red pepper flakes, and garlic powder and whisk together until fully combined. Set aside.
3. In a separate bowl, add bread crumbs and set aside also.
4. Now, dip each cauliflower into batter (shaking off any excess) and then toss into bread crumbs. Then lay each cauliflower side by side on the baking sheet (about an inch apart). Repeat until all cauliflower are coated.
5. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and "crunchy" looking. **NOTE: Be sure to flip each cauliflower on opposite side half way through baking time**
6. In the meantime, cook quinoa according to packaging.

For the Orange Sauce:

1. In a small saucepan on medium-high heat, add all ingredients (except for the arrowroot starch) and bring to a slight boil whisking everything together.
2. Once sauce thickens a bit, reduce heat and add arrowroot starch mixture, whisking it in until sauce begins to thicken more. Remove from heat and set aside.
3. When the cauliflower bites are done, remove them from the oven and carefully add them into the sauce immediately. Toss them carefully until fully coated. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
4. To serve, add a few spoonfuls of quinoa to a bowl, then top with orange cauliflower, and garnish with chopped green onions, optional.
