So I have a very special recipe today – Tahini & Miso Cauliflower Steaks from my lovely friend, blogger, food writer & stylist Natalie’s new cookbook – The Goodness of Nuts & Seeds – which she has kindly given me two copies of to run a little competition.
I love new cookbooks and trying out the recipes, especially if they have been lovingly created like this one.
I decided to make Natalie Tahini & Miso Cauliflower Steaks and loved it, really simple to make and I absolutely adore roast cauliflower so I’m always looking for new recipes! The dressing is delicious; miso, rice wine vinegar and tahini. And I love that Natalie has also roasted the other leaves of the cauliflower – a recent discovery and I’m hooked!
You can see my version of Natalie’s lovely recipe below.
About the book;
The book contains so many delicious selection of recipes all centred about nuts and seeds.
Natalie would love to change the way we look at the humble nut and seed smart, easy and flavour-packed recipes for everyday cooking for good…how to introduce these nutrient-rich heroes with minimum fuss. Natalie believes we need to reassess the way we consume nuts and seeds at home and encourages us to celebrate their versatility, using them as the basis for as many of our everyday meals as possible.
Nuts & seeds are nutritional powerhouses and help maintain a healthy heart, support your immune system, give you glowing skin and keep your brain in good condition. And most importantly the taste amazing!
Not only do the recipes sound delicious the book is beautifully styled & photographed by Natalie.
Recipes I really like; Raw Peach Melba cheesecake, Chia, Raspbery & Coconut slice, Cashew, Olive & Seed Tapanade and of course the Tahini & Miso Cauliflower Steaks
Things to note;
– The book IS NOT plant based but the focus is on nuts & seeds which are of course nutritional power houses and perfect when you’re a vegan or vegetarian.
– Comp only open to UK residents I’m afraid as I’ll be posting them out!

Did you know that I have a new cookbook?
It's called Rebel Recipes and I'm so proud of it. If you like my recipes I know you'll love my cookbook - It took me over a year to develop (and years in the making) and it's packed with deliciously vibrant veg packed recipes!

This recipe sounds and looks like something my family would love. Big time tahini and cauli fans here! I’m already big fan of Natalie’s work, I’m following her on Instagram and we have the same brilliant publisher, Kyle Books. I’m adding book to my wish list!
Hey Nina!
I think most people would love this delicious recipe!
Natalie is so talented isn’t she, just like you!
Love, Niki xxx
Nuts & Seeds! I can’t go a day without them in my diet so finding new ways to include them within meals is always welcomed. This group of foods is so versatile and incredibly nourishing I’m not surprised Natalie found ways to fill a book with them! I’m intrigued to know what’s inside! Definitely one for my cookbook shelf…. Thanks for sharing Niki and beautiful recreation.
Hey Joanne
I’m totally with you! Eat so many and there are tons more ideas here. Natalie is so clever!
Love, Niki xxxx
Hi Niki
I’d love to win Natalie’s wonderful cookbook because I’d love to cook and experiment more with nuts and seeds. I do eat good amount of nuts and seeds but only tend to be in my breakfast so cooking with them would bring up my home cooking to another level.
Thank you.

Hi Ashley
You need to try the cauli leaves, amazing!
And thank you!
Love, Niki xx
I would love to win this book! I really enjoy nuts and seeds but often don’t do anything more exciting with them than a little sprinkle on top of a meal! So would love to be inspired with new ways to incorporate them into recipes. This dish looks delicious – I still haven’t got round to doing a cauliflower steak but must add this to the list. Vx
Hey Vicky!
Oh you need to try, you’ll get hooked!
Yay, I’m sure do’d love Natalie’s book as well, very inspiring!

I have had my eye on this book since the build up on Instagram. Living in Kenya I have an abundance of fresh produce available, this includes nuts and seeds. I would love to learn new ways of using them in my cooking. As specialists cook books are near impossible to buy here it would be a little bit marvelous to win a copy! Yes I am in Kenya, but I am sure a member of the family in blighty would look after my copy until my next visit ????
Marina ✌????
Hi Marina
It is wonderful! Oh wow, I can imagine just how good the produce is!
Loce, Niki xx
Nathalie was one of the firste persons I started to follow on IG! Love her recipes and the use of nuts and seeds, and would be so happy to win her book! Thanks , Niki, for sharing one of the recipes with us, this sounds so delicious!
Hi Natalia
Me too, so inspiring isn’t she!
I can definitely confirm it was delicious.
Love & hugs

Regularily doing Mediterranean style diet, love looking at new ways of using great produce! BOOM! Here’s another! Thanks, be doing this one!!! Happy days
Hey Adam
I’m so glad you like it!
Best wishes
Niki
Well, if there is something that gives a divine taste to most of the meals I cook, for sure those are nuts and seeds..two addictions of mine and my family that can not be replaced..because once you discover something good, you keep it for life..and they keep us alive..a book ‘dedicated’ to nuts and seeds it’s THE book that I would be honored to ‘devour’..!
Hi Anna
I totally agree, pretty nut and seed obsessed myself!
Love, Niki xx
I love this recipe Niki! Already a tahini and cauly lover here;) And the book sounds amazing! I love Nathalie’s work already and now I think I need this book! I think seeds and nuts make everithing taste better and I probably use them in 90% of my meals:))
Love to both of you girls!
Maja xx

Hey, student veggie turning vegan here (faster and easier than I’d imagined!!) but definitely need to expand my recipe bank before I leave uni, and this book looks ideal for this! Definitely nut obsessed, tahini rocks on anything haha 😀 this blog was a great discovery too! Thanks, Tash xx
Totally with you there! Thanks so much Tash!
Love Niki xx
What a fantastic recipe and flavours Niki! Nathalie is fantastic and I’d love to go nuts over her new book to get some new inspiration!
Thanks lovely!!
She really is isn’t she. And this recipe was so so good!
Love Niki xx
Niki! Sounds and looks delicious, loving the ingredients list. Roasted cauli is a huge favourite here at home but I’ve never taken it as far as brushing them with a thick sauce like you are here (more a ‘drizzle stuff on top and how for the best style) – must try 🙂
Have signed up for your newsletter too, look forward to keep more in touch here in blogger space! xx
Hey Hon!
Glad you like it my dear!!! Roast cauliflower is ALWAYS good!
Thanks so signing up! Need to actually do a newsletter ????
Love & hugs xx
