BBQ Slow Cooker Cauliflower Recipe Share

Hello Everyone :)


I'm so excited that summer is coming to an end, and that fall is just around the corner. Of course, I'm always thankful for all the beautiful seasons that our Heavenly Father chooses to bless us with, but there's no denying that fall is my favorite, and I'm always happy to see it coming around.


Besides the beautiful colors, sweaters, riding boots, pumpkins and apples, I also love that fall is pretty much slow cooker season. There's so many amazing fall or winter slow cooker recipes, and today I'd like to share one with you all.


It's been a long time since I last posted a recipe post, in fact I'm pretty sure my last one was during Blogmas, but I was really happy with how this recipe turned out, and I wanted to share it.


This recipe came to be for three main reasons:


1) I really needed to go to the grocery store, and was kind of down to slim pickings in my fridge.


2) One thing I had left in my fridge was a head of cauliflower that really needed to be used up.


3) I was feeling pretty under the weather, hence why I never made it to the grocery store, and I didn't feel I had the energy to batter and bake cauliflower for something like sweet and sour cauliflower which is what I'd usually make.


I decided a slow cooker recipe would be perfect, but the only cauliflower slow cooker recipes I could find were all cheese based ones, and that wasn't really what I was looking for.


Alas, I decided to experiment, and was very happy with the results.




Ingredients you'll need:

I medium head of cauliflower, chopped into pieces

1 398 ml can of crushed pineapple (I used Dole)

1 455 ml bottle of BBQ sauce (I used no name chicken and rib)

1/4 to 1/3 cup of flour for thickening

1 onion, chopped into small sized pieces

Salt and Pepper to taste

Dash of chili pepper flakes (omit if you don't want it to be overly spicy)

Parsley for garnishing before serving.



Begin by chopping the cauliflower and the onion.

Then spray your slow cooker with no stick cooking spray, and add the cauliflower and onions to it.

Next add your flour on top of the vegetables, and stir to coat. I used the full 1/3 cup just to make sure the sauce would thicken up nicely.



Add in your bbq sauce, your pineapple, your salt and pepper, and your chili flakes if using.



Give it a stir to mix it all together, and then turn it on low for four to six hours, or until cauliflower and onions are nice and tender, and sauce is hot and bubbly.



After it's done cooking, serve it over rice or pasta, and garnish it with parsley.



Enjoy!

First Line Friday: Courting Mr. Emerson

Happy Friday Everyone :) Since it is Friday, I'll once again be participating in First Line Friday which is hosted by Hoarding Books .  For this week, I'm going to be sharing the first line from Melody Carlson's newest book, Courting Mr. Emerson. About The Book: When the fun-loving and spontaneous artist Willow West meets buttoned-up, retired English teacher George Emerson, it's not exactly love at first sight. Though she does find the obsessive-compulsive man intriguing. Making it her mission to get him to loosen up and embrace life, she embarks on what seems like a lost cause--and finds herself falling for him in the process. A confirmed bachelor, George vacillates between irritation and attraction whenever Willow is around--which to him seems like all too often. He's not interested in expanding his horizons or making new friends; it just hurts too much when you lose them. But as the summer progresses, George feels his defenses crumbling. The quest
