Ingredients

1 small head cauliflower (1 pound), core trimmed, florets coarsely chopped
1 small onion, quartered and sliced
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground pepper
8 ounces reduced-fat cream cheese, softened
½ cup low-fat plain yogurt
¼ cup crumbled blue cheese
¼ cup hot sauce, such as Frank's
1 scallion, sliced
8 medium carrots, cut into 3- to 4-inch sticks
8 medium celery stalks, cut into 3- to 4-inch sticks

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Toss cauliflower, onion, oil, salt and pepper together in a large bowl. Spread in a single layer on a large rimmed baking sheet. Roast, stirring once, until tender, about 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, coat an 8-inch-square baking dish with cooking spray. Whisk cream cheese, yogurt, blue cheese and hot sauce together in the bowl. Add the roasted vegetables and stir to coat. Transfer to the prepared baking dish. Bake until bubbly around the edges, 15 to 20 minutes. Garnish with scallion and serve with carrot and celery sticks.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
