Why we love Roasted Spiced Cauliflower Recipe

Our Roasted Spiced Cauliflower Recipe is completely mouth-watering you’ll never make cauliflower another way again! I’ve typically not been a huge lover of cauliflower so, I gotta admit after taking these photo’s–

I went into the kitchen and ate nearly half of it! Wowzers! It’s so good.

Slice as you eat our Roasted Spiced Cauliflower Recipe

I placed the whole head of cauliflower on a serving try then sliced off sections (about 1 inch thick slices). It easily separates into sections to serve.

Enjoy every last bite.

  1. I switched out pepper flakes for New Mexico and since I was starving when I started I microwaved it for 8 mins then put it under the broiler til it browned. Regardless nothing beats roasted cauliflower with a minimalist’s spice combination!
