I have always enjoyed cauliflower. In the past I normally ate it raw dipped in something creamy. A week ago they had cauliflower on sale at my local grocery store so I picked some up for the veggie tray at our Super Bowl party. After the party I still had almost a full head of cauliflower left and I knew I wouldn't eat the whole thing with dip before it went bad. So off I went in search of a tasty way to use up my cauliflower. And let me tell you....I found the best, full of flavor cauliflower recipe EVER!
You all know that I'm a fan of roasting vegetables. This recipe calls for roasting cauliflower with garlic and Parmesan cheese. The saltiness of the cheese with the roasted garlic takes the cauliflower over the top! So, without further ado, I give you........
Roasted Garlic & Parmesan Cauliflower
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 tbsp. olive oil
1 large head cauliflower, separated into florets (the more uniform in size the better)
1/3 C. shredded Parmesan cheese
salt & pepper
Parsley - 1 tbsp fresh or 1/2 tbsp dried
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Spray a baking sheet with non-stick spray.
Put the olive oil, garlic, and cauliflower in a large ziplock bag and shake until well mixed. (You can also put it in a large bowl and mix with your hands to makes sure it all gets coated.)
Dump the contents of the bag onto the prepared baking sheet and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Cover the baking sheet with tin foil and bake for 25 minutes. After 25 minutes, remove the tin foil, stir the cauliflower and sprinkle the Parmesan cheese and parsley on top. Return to the oven and broil on low for 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
