We're really trying to eat more vegetables and expand our horizons a little. So when one of our favorite farmer's market vendors told us about over wintered cauliflower, we decided we'd give it a try.
J found a recipe on the Food Network web site and we went to work. Well, to be honest, it wasn't that much work.
Ingredients (* = local, & = organic)
- Cauliflower *&
- Olive Oil &
- Sliced garlic *&
- Lemon juice *
- Salt
- Pepper
- Parmesan cheese *
I didn't put any proportions in the recipe because really, they aren't even needed. Simply cut the cauliflower into florets and place in a roasting pan. Slice a few cloves of garlic and mix it in with the cauliflower. Drizzle olive oil and lemon juice and turn to coat. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Roast in a 500 degree oven for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. When you remove the cauliflower from the oven, sprinkle some grated parmesan cheese over the top.
So, this was good. I still can't say that I love cauliflower, but I would make and eat this again.


Mmmm, this actually sounds really good. Cauliflower can be so dull and bland, but that also makes it a nice base for something tasty. Like cheese. Especially cheese!
