Cauliflower is one of the most under rated foods on the market. Not only can you eat these bad boys raw, but they can also be baked, roasted, sauteed, riced, crusted... you name it! Cauliflower is versatile in the kitchen, it also contains a little of almost every vitamin and mineral our bodies need. It is a great source of fiber, vitamins C, K, B6, folate, potassium, magnesium, phosphorus, and more. Now the question is where is the super food petition because these should be on the list!

Juice of half a lemon
