Parmesan Crusted Cauliflower


I love vegetables, but lets face it, sometimes they can be a little boring. So I'm always trying to find fun creative ways to prepare them. I've been eating tons of veggies lately, I mean, it is that time of year. I'm particularly addicted to roasted veggies. The flavor is just so amazing! Plus they can be prepared very quickly. These roasted cauliflower florets are so delicious, and they'll add a little sumpin sumpin to your evening fare. Much more interesting than mushy steam cauliflower and believe it or not it's done in about the same amount of time. So make these asap, and you will be loved by all, even the "not so sure about cauliflower" diners. You're welcome. I know you'll love it! 

Parmesan Crusted Cauliflower Florets
Ingredients:
1 Head cauliflower
1 lg. *egg, beaten (you may need 2 depending on how large your cauliflower is)
1 cup (or more!) **Grated Parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
Olive Oil

Directions:
Preheat oven 425 degrees.
Wash cauliflower and cut into florets. Place florets in a bowl, and pour beaten egg over, tossing until completely coated with egg. Place cauliflower into another bowl; season with salt and pepper. Then add the cheese. Toss cauliflower with cheese until completely coated. transfer to a parchment lined baking pan, and drizzle with olive oil. Bake at 425 degrees for 15-20 minutes until golden and yummy. 

*Don't do eggs? To make this dish egg-free, toss cauliflower with olive oil.
**Don't do dairy? Replace parm with nutritional yeast. It will give you that great cheesy flavor!
