Ingredients (11)

  • 24 oz cauliflower
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter about half an ounce
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp paprika
  • 0.75 oz parmesan shredded
  • 1 tbsp parsley chopped
  • 1 tsp fresh thyme

INSTRUCTIONS

1

Preheat the oven to 450°F.

2

Place 24 oz worth of cauliflower florets into a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Microwave for 7 minutes. Alternatively, you can steam them for the same amount of time.

3

Carefully remove the wrap and add to the bowl 1 tbsp olive oil and 1 tbsp unsalted butter. Gently toss to coat. You don't need to melt the butter, as the residual heat from the cauliflower is enough to do so.

4

Spread them out onto a baking tray, lined with parchment or sprayed with non-stick spray. Slide into the oven and bake for 15 minutes.

5

Meanwhile, combine the seasonings, herbs, and spices in a bowl. There are: garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, paprika (1/4 tsp each), 0.75 oz parmesan, 1 tbsp chopped parsley, and 1 tbsp fresh thyme.

6

Take the cauliflower tray out of the oven and sprinkle the mixture onto the cauliflower. Pop it back to bake for another 5 minutes.

7

Serve and enjoy!
