Oven Roasted Cauliflower


I make this ALL the time but have been forgetting to take pictures and post the recipe. It's super easy and versatile. I've listed the ingredients that I used this past time and that you see in the picture but I've also mixed it up with mexican seasoning, cheese, italian seasoning, sriracha and ginger, and other stuff. Basically whatever seasoning you like. Also this is a GREAT staple to substitute pastas/rice. For a quick dinner the other night I made this,heated up some chicken meatballs, and added a little sauce. It was tasty, filling, and satisfying without all the extra carbs.

Ingredients
  • Cauliflower (has better taste if you use it the day, or soon after, you buy it. Sometimes it can taste funny after sitting in the fridge for a few days.)
  • Olive oil - couple tablespoons for each half head of cauliflower
  • Seasoning: salt, pepper, garlic powder, dash of cayenne pepper
  • Parmesan Cheese
Directions
  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees
  • Cut cauliflower into florets
  • place in pan or on baking sheet
  • Coat with olive oil and seasoning of choice
  • Bake 7 min. Take out and toss. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese and place back in oven
  • Bake additional 7 minutes or so and remove. Top with a little bit more cheese and enjoy
When I do it my florets look like this...


And the final product!
