Greek Cauliflower

In Greece, cauliflower is called “kounoupidi”. Cauliflower is generally consumed as a main course by Greeks and it was a common dish during fasting periods. Besides the fact that it’s low in calories and high in fiber, it has other properties that protect from chronic diseases such as cancer and stops the growth of tumors in the breast.
