I love cauliflower in all its different forms. This way is by far my favorite. Roasting cauliflower brings out a whole new taste, not to mention adding seasonings and ingredients that compliment it so perfectly. It even had my husband, a classic cauliflower-hater, scraping the bottom of the serving dish. 

Here's how to make Parmesan Roasted Cauliflower!

  • 1 head cauliflower

  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp fresh ground pepper
