XXX Buffalo Cauliflower Bites
Cauliflower is having a big moment. Everyone’s favorite veggie alternative also happens to be a superior vessel for heat-packed buffalo flavor. Glazed in our Tabañero Limited Edition XXX Wing Sauce mixture, these XXX Buffalo Cauliflower Bites are the life of every party. Chicken wings WISH they could be this light and spicy, but there’s just no competing with these bad boys. Our cauliflower bites are air fried to crispy perfection and tossed in the most deliciously intense wing sauce you’ve ever tasted. Serve with a side of ranch or blue cheese dressing for guests who can’t take the heat, and then tell them to get out of the kitchen.
