Tips:
- Choose the right cauliflower: Look for a head of cauliflower that is compact and heavy for its size, with tightly packed florets. Avoid heads with any signs of bruising or discoloration.
- Roast the cauliflower at a high temperature: This will help to caramelize the florets and give them a delicious roasted flavor.
- Use a variety of seasonings: Don't be afraid to experiment with different herbs, spices, and oils to flavor the cauliflower. Some popular options include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, cumin, and olive oil.
- Roast the cauliflower until it is tender: The cauliflower should be tender when pierced with a fork, but still slightly firm.
- Serve the cauliflower immediately: Roasted cauliflower is best served hot, so enjoy it right away!

It is a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables, and it is also a good source of fiber and vitamins.
