These Vegan Cauliflower Wings Are the Perfect Snack for Super Bowl Sunday

Super Bowl Sunday means two things: football and snacks. For the

plant-based or vegan among us, though, the unofficial national holiday's edible offerings can veer quickly into inedible territory, with chicken wings, loaded nachos, and sliders featuring heavily in a typical rotation. For this reason and more, we're preaching the gospel of cauliflower wings this week (and forevermore).

When cooked up just right (in this case, that means

air-fried) and coated in an appropriate sauce, cauliflower florets provide a delicious chicken alternative that everyone can enjoy, which is a refreshing concept.

For the perfect faux wing, start with
