How to Prepare Cauliflower Sloppy Joes [Vegan]

Heat the olive oil in a large pan on medium-high heat.
Add in the garlic, pepper, and onion and cook until just lightly golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.
Add in the cauliflower and cook, stirring frequently, for 2 minutes.
Add all the remaining ingredients, up to the parsley, and stir together. Make sure you really break the tomato paste down into the sauce.
Turn the heat up to high and bring to a rapid boil. Then, reduce the heat to medium and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the liquid evaporates and the mixture is thickened (but still moist and saucy), about 10 minutes.
Divide the mixture between the buns and garnish with parsley and onion.
