Adding parmesan cheese to roasted cauliflower is a such a great flavor combination. We all know that eating vegetables is important, but isn’t always easy. This recipe makes eating your vegetables much easier! Our son wouldn’t eat vegetables without regular encouragement and he didn’t mind this recipe, so that’s a win! The baby is just beginning to pick up and eat food on her own, so this soft vegetable was great for her. And I actually crave this recipe. My husband will happily eat anything that’s prepared for him, so he’s the easy one in the group. We all enjoyed this so much that we are going to make another head cauliflower to enjoy with hamburgers tonight.
I don’t know how it works, but roasting vegetables really makes the flavor bloom unlike any other preparation method. I might even like roasted vegetables better than grilled vegetables. We love how simple and easy it is to coat the cauliflower with olive oil and mix with parmesan cheese, bread crumbs and a sprinkle of garlic powder. Roast at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for 25 minutes and you have a warm, wonderful side to accompany many meals.
Since heads of cauliflower come in different sizes I like to have a large baking sheet on hand like this one.
Easy, cheesy roasted cauliflower is a great side dish to keep in the family meal rotation.
