Fajita Seasoned Roasted Cauliflower

Roasted Cauliflower

Wondering what side dish to serve with your speedy dinner? Roasting cauliflower (or broccoli) is a phenomenal veggie side dish that’s quick and tasty. ​

---

The classic way is to roast with simply olive oil, minced garlic and sea salt. It only takes a few moments of prep work and then roasts in the oven for 20 or so minutes while you pull dinner together. The florets come out crispy and savory, which is a nice change from soft and soggy that we often encounter.
This version below uses taco spices to amp up the flavor and excitement of this classic cauliflower dish. Enjoy!
