- When roasting the cauliflower, make sure to spread the florets evenly on the baking sheet. This allows them to cook and caramelize evenly, giving you the perfect texture and flavor.
- For the avocado sauce, use ripe avocados for the creamiest texture. If they're too firm, the sauce may end up lumpy.
- If you're making a larger batch of buffalo cauliflower, consider serving the avocado sauce on the side. This will keep the cauliflower crispy and prevent it from getting soggy.
- Feel free to adjust the amount of Buffalo sauce to suit your heat preference. Love it spicy? Add a little extra. If you're sensitive to heat, just use a bit less.
- If you're doubling or tripling the recipe, please note that avocado sauce can be stored in an airtight container for 1 day. The color may darken slightly as the avocado oxidizes. This, however, doesn't affect the taste of the sauce.
