Roasted cauliflower is a fast and easy recipe that turns this unassuming and healthy vegetable into a star. Your family will soon be asking for this delicious side dish all the time!

After the huge success of my Garlic Parmesan Roasted Cauliflower recipe, I decided to create another one because I know you all love roasted vegetable recipes as much as I do! 😉

Cauliflower is such a versatile ingredient and can be cooked in so many different ways, like this Mashed Cauliflower Recipe and Broccoli and Cauliflower Casserole Recipe and this Cauliflower Steaks.

Cheesy Cauliflower Casserole Recipe

You may have noticed that cauliflower has become a very popular vegetable, especially as a substitute ingredient in recipes. It now appears as pizza crust, cauliflower wings and even cauliflower rice.

Like all fruits and vegetables, you need to make sure that the cauliflower is nice and clean before cooking it. You can get it cleaner by cutting it into florets first (see instructions below) before washing it.

This Roasted Cauliflower recipe is absolutely tasty and very easy to make. I think the best part of this oven roasted cauliflower recipe is that you can use any spice you like. It doesn’t take much to make this dish explode with flavor! All you need is the following short list of ingredients:

Roasted Garlic Parmesan Cauliflower Recipe

I love hot spices. But if they are too strong for you, replace them for the ones you are used to. You can add also curry powder, red pepper flakes, chili powder, cloves garlic and even fresh herbs such as rosemary and cilantro. Either way, this healthy side dish will be the star of your table. If you like a cheese flavor, you can also add some parmesan cheese on top of the florets before baking.

4. Remove the core of each quarter by running your knife between the florets and the core piece. After you have removed the core, all the florets should naturally fall apart. If you find some of the florets are still quite large, break them up into smaller pieces (bite-sized pieces) with your knife (or hands). It’s great if your florets haveplenty of flat edges because theflat sides will lay flush against the pan, giving them a chance to caramelize.

Making this Roasted Cauliflower could not be any easier. Once you realize how simple it is (and how delicious!), you’ll want to make this as often as possible!

Roasted Air Fryer Cauliflower Recipe

You can prepare it ahead of time by cutting the cauliflower into florets and adding all the spices. Then when it’s about 30 minutes before dinnertime, place the cauliflower in the oven, and bake it for about 25 minutes. Optional, you can also ad some lemon zest and lemon juice on top of it before serving.

I mentioned before how easy it is to incorporate cauliflower into other dishes, so now is your chance to try it for yourself. Check out this Easy Cauliflower Fried Riceor this Mushroom Cauliflower Rice Skillet Recipe.

I think cauliflower is always the best side dish because it basically goes with any protein, such as salmon, chicken breast, baked chicken, seared steak, pork chops, garlic butter shrimp, and even frittata. I love to serve it with salmon and a salad. Hm… So good!! Also, you can serve it in tacos, making it a vegetarian or vegan meal.

Smoky Roasted Cauliflower

Also, this Roasted Cauliflower Recipe is a great option to serve for holiday parties because it’s hard to find someone who doesn’t like cauliflower, right?

This is also a great side dish if you are on a low-carb, vegan/vegetarian, paleo, or gluten-free diet. I really hope you give this recipe a try and enjoy it!

Ensure that there is enough space on your baking sheet when you roast the cauliflower. You should let there be some space when you roast them or the cauliflower florets will steam and you’ll end up with mushy cauliflower. Also, it will help if you spread the florets into an even layer.  

Mediterranean Cauliflower Rice

The heads of the cauliflower should be compact, white, and firm. Avoid any that look dry and yellow. You also want cauliflower that are dense and feel heavy for their size.

You can find cut cauliflower florets in the frozen section of most grocery stores. You can thaw and roast them if the fresh cauliflower section is not ideal.

As always, I really appreciate you stopping by.Last month, I shared three new cauliflower recipes – a Cauliflower Soup, Vegan Alfredo Sauce, and Cauliflower Mac and Cheese. As I developed them, I found myself amazed (once again) at the versatility of this humble veggie. It can blend into creamy soups and sauces without the help of nuts or dairy, and it can transform into a substitute for noodles or rice. You can boil it, steam it, sauté it, roast it, or even eat it raw. My question is, what

Because cauliflower is one of the vegetables I cook most often throughout the winter and early spring, I thought now would be a perfect time to highlight some of my best cauliflower recipes. Even if you’re on the fence about cauliflower, I hope you’ll try one. Cauliflower is so flexible that if you don’t like it prepared one way, you’ll surely enjoy it cooked another. Trust me, you’re bound to find cauliflower recipes you love!

If you’re new to cooking cauliflower, these recipes are a great place to start. Serve either one on its own as a side dish, or use it as a building block for making soups, salads, stir fries, and more!

Baby Cauliflower Recipe (roasted)

My go-to method for cooking cauliflower! Spread the florets on a sheet pan, season them with olive oil, salt, and pepper, and roast until they’re tender and golden brown around the edges.

This trendy veggie “rice” is super simple to make. Just pulse raw cauliflower in a food processor until it has a fine, rice-like texture. Use it as a substitute for regular rice, or mix the two together to sneak extra veggies into your favorite rice recipes.

This gourmet cream of mushroom soup is a far cry from the kind that comes in a can. It’s rich and savory, with a crave-worthy creamy texture that comes from – you got it – blended cauliflower.

Sticky Sesame Cauliflower

Roasted cauliflower and cashews give this vegan soup a rich, creamy texture. Garnish it with extra roasted cauliflower florets and/or homemade croutons for crunch.

This curry-spiced soup is delicious on its own, but I like it even better with a swirl of kale pesto on top. It tastes delicious, and it’s pretty, too – the green pesto creates a gorgeous contrast with the yellow soup.

When it’s roasted, cauliflower crisps up around the edges, and it retains a nice al dente bite. This hearty texture makes it perfect for stuffing into veggie sandwiches and tacos like the ones you’ll find below.

Easy Cauliflower Rice

A fan favorite from our first cookbook! Spiced-up cauliflower florets nestle into tacos with creamy avocado slices and an addictive chipotle yogurt sauce.

These shawarma-spiced tacos come from my friend Molly Yeh’s cookbook Molly on the Range. They’re SO fun and flavorful, packed with crispy cauliflower, fried onions, creamy tahini sauce, and spicy zhoug.

This knock-out weeknight dinner recipe couldn’t be simpler to make. Just broil the cauliflower and halloumi until they’re deeply browned, stuff them into pitas with harissa and arugula, and eat!

I Ate Cauliflower For A Week And Here's What Happened

Nope! You won’t find any meat or seafood tucked into this hearty po’ boy sandwich. Instead, it’s overflowing with breaded and baked cauliflower florets, lettuce, tomatoes, and a creamy, smoky remoulade sauce.

If you ask me, tangy romesco sauce and roasted cauliflower are a match made in heaven. Here, I layer them into sandwiches with juicy tomato slices, fresh parsley, and salad greens for crunch.

I could rave about this recipe all day long! It’s brimming with exciting textures and flavors. Olives add briny flavor, dried apricots add sweetness, and toasted almonds give it a nice crunch. Top it off with poppy pickled onions and lots of tahini dressing.

Roasted Cauliflower With Pine Nut, Raisin, And Caper Vinaigrette Recipe

This salad is one of my favorite recipes to meal prep for lunch. I love the way the bright cilantro lime dressing plays off the earthy lentils and rich roasted paneer.

This Mean Green Grain Bowl is the sort of thing I love to make on a weeknight. While the veggies roast, I cook a pot of quinoa and whizz up the vibrant pesto sauce. It all takes under 30 minutes to make, and it’s energizing and flavorful. Yum!

A ginger-coconut sauce adds rich flavor to the cauliflower rice in these grain- and gluten-free bowls. They’re light and refreshing, but still satisfying, thanks to creamy avocado, sautéed mushrooms, and hearty baked tofu.

Sticky Sesame Cauliflower Recipe

I LOVE spaghetti squash, but not when it’s drowned in marinara. Instead, I like to use it in this light,
