Lemon Parmesan Roasted Cauliflower

This cauliflower is amazing!  And it doesn't get any easier than this.  You don't even need the parmesan, its just so good right out of the oven!!!  This is a unique way to prepare an underutilized vegetable.  Enjoy!

Happy Cooking!

Lemon Parmesan Roasted Cauliflower
This recipe was inspired by the recipe below, although I left off the capers and modified it slightly.  I have also made this recipe with no parmesan cheese and it's equally delicious.

the juice of 1/2 lemon
1 large head of cauliflower, trimmed and cut into florets
2 T olive oil
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground pepper
1/2 cup finely shredded or grated Parmesan cheese, which ever you have on hand is fine

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees and line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil.  Toss the cauliflower in the lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper. 
Spread out evenly and cook at 450 for about 30 minutes, or until tender and golden brown, turning half way through.
Toss the cauliflower with the parmesan cheese and serve immediately.  So yummy!!!
