Easy Roasted Cauliflower with Garlic and Parmesan Cheese

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.
