The beet chip makes such a delicious and simple chip; it is great for appetizers. You can use red or yellow beets, but the red will stain the cauliflower so it isn’t ideal. This dish is tasty with leftover quinoa. Just substitute the quinoa for the cauliflower. Surprisingly it has a similar flavor and mouth feel to real caviar!
Beets—Toss beets with lemon juice and oil to preserve the color.
Cauliflower Caviar—Process all ingredients in the food processor until the texture is still slightly chunky and reminiscent of caviar. Assembly—Drain beets if necessary. Lay beets out in individual slices on a serving tray. Place a few teaspoons of Cauliflower Caviar on top of each beet. Garnish with micro mint. For a variation, add a small scoop of Avocado Créme Fraîche (page 99) before topping with caviar.
