Crispy Roasted Cauliflower

Ingredients:

• 1 medium head of cauliflower, cut into florets

• 2 tbsp olive oil

• 1/2 tsp salt

• 1/2 tsp black pepper

• 1/2 tsp garlic powder

• 1/2 tsp paprika (optional, for extra flavor)

• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

• 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Prepare Cauliflower: Wash and dry the cauliflower florets. Place them in a large mixing bowl.

3. Season: Drizzle olive oil over the florets. Add salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Toss well to coat evenly.

4. Bake: Spread the cauliflower in a single layer on the baking sheet. Roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.

5. Add Cheese (Optional): If using Parmesan, sprinkle it over the cauliflower during the last 5 minutes of roasting.

6. Garnish & Serve: Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve immediately.
