Roasted Cauliflower
Roasting cauliflower with oil, garlic, and breadcrumbs brings out tons of toasty flavor in this superhero veggie.
Ingredients
- 1 large head cauliflower
- 2 1/2 tablespoons olive oil OR vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup bread crumbs
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 cloves garlic, minced OR 2 teaspoons garlic powder
Equipment & Utensils
- Non-stick spray
- Cutting board
- Baking sheet
- Knife
- Tongs
- Measuring cups and spoons
Instructions
- Before you begin, wash your hands, surfaces, utensils, and vegetables.
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Spray baking sheet with non-stick spray.
- Pile the cauliflower pieces in the middle of the prepared baking sheet and drizzle with oil. Sprinkle with breadcrumbs, black pepper, garlic powder, and salt (if using). Toss with tongs or your hands to combine.
- Spread the cauliflower out in an even layer on the baking sheet.
- Bake for 15 minutes, toss, and bake for an additional 20 minutes or until cauliflower starts to brown.
Tips
- Chop the whole head of cauliflower at one time. Pack extra cauliflower florets in snack sized containers for lunches.
- To make your own bread crumbs, preheat oven to 300 degrees. Put two slices of bread on a cookie sheet. Bake the bread until it easily crumbles (about 15-20 minutes). Seal the bread slices in a zip-close plastic bag and crush the bread. Store leftover bread crumbs in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2-3 months.
