How to make Keto Buffalo Cauliflower Bites and Avocado Dip

Start by preparing your dip, then storing it in the fridge till you are ready to serve, alternatively you can also make your dip while cauliflower is roasting. Next, you want to prep your cauliflower bites. Coat them in egg, then toss them in the almond flour and spices. Lay them out on a prepped baking sheet and let the oven work its magic! Lastly prep your buffalo sauce, combine your hot sauce with butter, and whisk till butter melts. Base your cauli bites with buffalo sauce then broil them for a few minutes. Told you this was easy!
