Tuscan Cauliflower, Tomato, and Bean Sauté

I've been working on this little at-home challenge where I'm trying to eat more vegetables every day. Some days I achieve my goal, some days I don't. But the good days outweigh the bad and I think I'll eventually hit the amount that I'm happy with each and every day. In an effort to help me succeed, I'm trying to whip up these awesome side dishes that serve more as the main entrée than the actual side.

Take this tasty, little cauliflower concoction for example. I filled it full of veggies and served it with some grilled chicken. My plate of side dish to chicken ratio was, of course, biased and that means that the 'veggie side as the main component' goal was achieved! I filled up on the veggies, had a little chicken to get my protein fix, and was set!
