I love rack of lamb and lamb chops! These perfect and lean chops are the right size and tenderness for bariatric dining. I pan sear them while my Parmesan Cauliflower roasts and then pop them into the oven to finish while the salad gets plated. This is a 30 minute meal that is an excellent choice for a Holiday meal. This plate of food could be served in a very fancy pants restaurant! The cauliflower is out of this world.
