Tonight was a rare occasion…we actually sat down and had a family dinner…together! Thanks to Mother Nature, lacrosse practice was canceled. Only problem, I forgot to take something out to make tonight. It was 4:30 pm and I was scrambling to figure out what to make. I found a Stouffer’s Meat Loaf in the freezer so I made that, noodles for the kids, heated up some leftover mashed sweet potatoes and I made THE BEST oven roasted cauliflower. It got an “eh” from Zack. That’s pretty huge considering he will only eat salad and green beans!
Oven Roasted Cauliflower
Ingredients
- One Head of Cauliflower
- 2 tsp Minced Garlic
- 1 Onion, sliced
- 2 TBS Olive Oil
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
- Cayenne Pepper, to taste
- 1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 425°. Line a baking sheet with tin foil (makes clean up easier).
- Put all of the ingredients, except for the Parmesan Cheese, into a gallon size Ziplock bag. Shake the bag to toss the ingredients evenly.
- Pour everything in the bag onto the baking sheet and bake for 35 minutes.
- Sprinkle the Parmesan Cheese over top of the cauliflower and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes.
Look at all that deliciousness!
I am a huge cauliflower fanatic. I thought my favorite was the Cauliflower Rice was my favorite recipe, but now I don’t know! If cayenne pepper is not your thing, experiment with different spices!
I have always wanted to make roast cauliflower, but never had the nerve to actually try it. A friend of mine made some a few weeks ago and LOVED it. So I put it on my grocery list that i will be buying today! Thanks for the recipe I will be using it soon!
We love roasted cauliflower! I use italian spices or I add some smoked gouda or cheddar cheese at the end. Such an easy recipe and family-approved too!
I am not the biggest fan of cauliflower because I don’t really know what to do with it. I will have to try this out, it looks yummy.
What a great idea. We eat cauliflower every now and then and this would be something different for us to try. Thanks!!
