Ingredients
  

  • 1 head cauliflower cut into bite-sized florets
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp freshly cracked black pepper
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil for drizzling
  • 1 Tbsp chopped parsley optional garnish

Equipment

  • Oven
  • baking sheet
  • parchment paper
  • mixing bowl
  • measuring cups
  • measuring spoons

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 400ºF. Rinse the cauliflower well, then cut into bite-sized florets.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the Parmesan, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. Place the cauliflower florets in a bowl and drizzle the olive oil over top, followed by the prepared garlic Parmesan seasoning. Toss the florets until they are completely coated in oil and seasoning.
  4. Spread the seasoned cauliflower out over a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, ensuring the florets are in a single layer with space around each piece. Transfer the baking sheet to the preheated oven.
  5. Roast the cauliflower for about 30 minutes, stirring halfway through, or until the florets reach your desired level of caramelization. Season with extra salt and pepper and sprinkle chopped parsley over top just before serving, if desired.
