This oven-roasted cauliflower recipe is savory and delicious. The crispy cauliflower florets are heavenly by themselves or as a side for roasted beef or chicken.
This 4 ingredient oven-roasted cauliflower can be meal prepped at the beginning of the week for an easy side throughout the week.
Roasted cauliflower is another recipe that I loved to make when I was a vegetarian. The last recipe I shared - Linguine with red cabbage and kale - was a frequent meal of mine, as was this roasted cauliflower. I would eat almost the whole sheet pan’s worth of cauliflower in one sitting.
IT- IS- JUST- THAT- GOOD!
You can eat the cauliflower as is or you can serve it with roasted beef roast, or with roasted chicken legs. This is a fun and easy side dish that you can make in no time!
How To Make Oven Roasted Cauliflower
Start by preheating your oven to 400F degrees and lining a sheet pan with parchment paper.
Next, rinse your head of cauliflower, and cut it in half. Cut the cauliflower into bite-sized florets.
Spread the cauliflower evenly across the sheet pan. Drizzle over the olive oil or Homemade Ghee, salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Toss everything together to evenly coat the cauliflower florets in the oil.
Cook the cauliflower for 30 - 40 minutes, or until the edges are brown and the florets are fork-tender. Serve and enjoy!
