We received a head of cauliflower in our CSA box last week and I prepared this tasty and easy recipe with it. Found on the blog everybodylikessandwiches.com. Lime juice replaced lemon juice.

  • 1 Tbsp
    ground cumin (you could sub cumin seeds if desired but lightly crush them first)
  • 1 Tbsp
    ground sumac
  • 1/2 tsp
    salt-free garlic powder (you can use fresh garlic but add it the last 10 minutes or so of baking to avoid burning)

How To Make sumac, lime and cumin-roasted cauliflower

  • 1
    Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a large mixing bowl combine the cauliflower florets, olive oil, lime juice, cumin, sumac and garlic powder. Toss well to evenly coat.
  • 2
    Place the cauliflower florets on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper.
  • 3
    Bake for 30 minutes, stirring the cauliflower at the halfway mark for even browning. (If you think it might be browning too quickly, the temperature can be reduced.) When the cauliflower is golden brown and crispy, remove from the oven.
