2 cups lightly packed spinach leaves
2 tablespoons tahini
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 coarsely chopped small garlic clove
Salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Place cauliflower florets in a steamer basket set over a pot of simmering water. Cover and steam until crisp-tender, about 8 minutes.
