I only made 2 cups of this and it was not enough. You can increase or decrease the amounts of spices to your taste.
My husband is typically not a fan of cauliflower with anything on it but cheese, and thought these were ugly... but he gobbled them up. He liked to use ranch dressing as a dip with these.

This is a great new way to serve cauliflower. The roasting of the cauliflower brought out the sweetness and the spices added just enough heat to complement the sweetness. A tasty side dish!
Ingredients
-
2 ccauliflower (raw, small, uniform pieces) can use up to 4 cups
-
1 1/2 Tbspolive oil, light
-
1/8 tspcayenne pepper (I like with 1/4 tsp also)
-
1/4 tspgarlic powder
-
1/2 tspsea salt
-
pinchwhite cheddar popcorn seasoning (optional)
How to Make Spicy Roasted Cauliflower
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
- Break cauliflower up into small, uniform pieces.
- Whisk olive oil and spices together in a bowl. (Not the white cheddar popcorn seasoning) Add the uniform pieces of cauliflower and mix thoroughly. I did these about the size of a popped popcorn kernel.
- Place parchment paper on top of cookie sheet, then place the seasoned cauliflower pieces on top of the parchment paper. Try a snack with some of the seasoned pieces eaten raw... tastes really good to me like that too!
- Place on the center shelf of the preheated oven. Roast for 45 minutes, or to level desired. I like mine crisp with brown edges like pictured. These need to be stirred on pan every 15 minutes until done.
- May sprinkle with white cheddar popcorn seasoning if desired.
