Ingredients:

2 head organic cauliflower (I used Earthbound Farms)

6 oz speck

8 slices bread (I used ad astra’s seaside loaf)

Trader Joe’s everything but the elote, Parmesan, chives, smoked sea salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

1 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
2 wash, cut and toss with oil then roast the cauliflower for approximately 25 minutes.
3 remove cauliflower and set the oven to broil
4 In a mixing bowl combine the cauliflower, mascarpone, stirring to coat the florets evenly. Stir in the Gruyere, speck, TJ everything but the elite, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
5 Toast the bread in a toaster until lightly browned, and place in a single layer on a sheet pan lined with foil. Mound the cauliflower mixture evenly on each toast.
