Low-fat cauliflower and tomato casserole

Cauliflower and tomato casserole is a dish that evokes a healthy, home-cooked tradition in many Latin American cultures. Its origin is linked to peasant cooking, where fresh, local ingredients were used to create nutritious and tasty meals. In different Latin American countries, this recipe may have various names or small adaptations, such as "cauliflower pudding" in Argentina or "cauliflower gratin" in Mexico. Its versatility and the use of accessible ingredients make it a popular choice for those seeking light and comforting dishes.

The use of cauliflower and tomato as a main base not only provides an excellent vitamin contribution but also combines mild flavors with the acidic and fresh touch of tomato.
