A recipe to share

I don't know about you, but it seems I am always looking for a new side dish. We always have salad with our dinner, but I try and serve another vegetable and it always seems to be green beans. So in my search to break away from the bean, I found this recipe for Parmesan Roasted Cauliflower from The Biggest Lose Cookbook and it is awesome!  So I though I would share.

Parmesan Roasted Cauliflower

Ingredients:
     3 cups cauliflower florets

    1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
     salt to taste
     2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil

Preheat oven to 425.

In a medium bowl, combine cauliflower, cheese, parsley, garlic powder, and pepper. Season with salt. Toss to mix. Drizzle on the olive oil and toss again.  Transfer the mixture to a baking dish.

Bake for 15-17 minutes, tossing once. Bake until lightly browned and crisp-tender.
