This roasted cauliflower with garlic and parmesan cheese is so easy to make, it takes about 10 minutes to get the cauliflower ready to go in the oven, and then it roasts whole for one hour and thirty minutes. This roasted cauliflower recipe is so hands-off, I just love it. The cauliflower comes out of the oven firm enough to cut and hold its shape, but very moist and soft to eat. The cauliflower still has a lot of flavors, unlike boiled cauliflower. My mind is spinning with possibilities for more roasted cauliflower recipes.

As always, your food looks delicious! I often do cauliflower in the microwave in a recipe I got from WorldWideRecipes.com : Cut the core out of ahead of cauliflower, put it on a plate, cover it with a bowl, microwave on high for 7 minutes. Mix equal parts mustard and mayonnaise, spread it all over the cauliflower, sprinkle with salt, pepper, and grated sharp cheddar. Microwave again until the cheese is melty. OH, yeah! But your roasted cauliflower looks EVEN BETTER.
