Spicy Roasted Cauliflower image

A fantastic way to serve cauliflower. Roasting cauliflower brings out its natural sweetness. The cayenne adds just enough heat to complement the sweetness. A tasty side dish or even a delicious healthy snack.

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 c cauliflower (raw, small, uniform pieces) can use up to 4 cups
1 1/2 Tbsp olive oil, light
1/8 tsp cayenne pepper (I like with 1/4 tsp also)
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp sea salt
pinch white cheddar popcorn seasoning (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
  • 2. Break cauliflower up into small, uniform pieces.
  • 3. Whisk olive oil and spices together in a bowl. (Not the white cheddar popcorn seasoning) Add the uniform pieces of cauliflower and mix thoroughly. I did these about the size of a popped popcorn kernel.
  • 4. Place parchment paper on top of a cookie sheet, then place the seasoned cauliflower pieces on top of the parchment paper. Try a snack with some of the seasoned pieces eaten raw... tastes really good to me!
  • 5. Place on the center shelf of the preheated oven. Roast for 45 minutes, or to the level desired.
  • 6. I like mine crisp with brown edges. These need to be stirred on the pan every 15 minutes until done.
  • 7. May sprinkle with white cheddar popcorn seasoning, if desired.
