This Roasted Cauliflower is easy to make and brings out the best flavor in the cauliflower. Everyone loves this simple, healthy side dish!
Really, all vegetables should be roasted. While we like plenty of veggie recipes that don’t include roasting, we never quite love them. Roasting gives cauliflower the perfect amount of browning and crispiness, and it is simply delightful. Honestly, it upstages the main course half the time, but maybe that’s just us. We love our veggies in The Stay At Home Chef household, and it’s not hard to see why once you try this parmesan, lemony, garlic perfection.
Health Benefits:
Cauliflower is packed full of fiber and B vitamins. Fiber can help support lower cholesterol levels, control blood sugar, and has a good amount of phytonutrients and antioxidants that many believe can help fight off disease.
What does cauliflower taste like?
The taste of cauliflower is not strong and is very mild-tasting with a little bit of a nutty flavor. This means it takes on the taste of its seasonings well. This recipe does a great job at enhancing cauliflower’s natural taste with an amazing parmesan, lemon, and garlic flavor.
How to cut cauliflower for The Best Roasted Cauliflower:
