Roasted Cauliflower with onions and garlic then topped off with Parmesan cheese. The caramelized vegetables make a mouthwatering side dish.
There are not many ways I eat cauliflower. Let’s be honest it is kinda blah. I have amped up the flavor for my roasted cauliflower with onion, garlic and fresh thyme from the garden. Then a sprinkling of Parmesan cheese to put it over the top. The crispy caramelized flavor of the roasted cauliflower, onion, and garlic has become a favorite dish along side my grilled steak. I know what you are about to say! Wait, but I love potatoes! Potatoes will never leave my steak’s side EVER! I love potatoes too! Here is my recipe from Perfect Buttered Herb Mini Potatoes. But seriously, give cauliflower a chance.
When cauliflower goes on sale. Grab a head. One head of cauliflower goes a long way. This Roasted Cauliflower recipe serves 4.

Years ago I tried a recipe for low carb pizza crust. It was a baked mixture of mozzarella and cauliflower. It was delicious with an embarrassing amount of cheese and hardly healthy. I regret nothing!
Roasted Cauliflower with caramelized onions and garlic! Now that is a flavor combination I can feel healthy about. Topped and baked in Parmesan cheese for a delicious flavor. This is the perfect side dish for a steak that has just come off the grill. Complete the meal with my Sauteed Garlic Asparagus.
Anyway enjoy this recipe as a side dish or just something to snack on. Hit me up on social media or leave a comment with a link to your favorite cauliflower recipe. We would love to make it!
