"We loved this!" raves Crystal. "We also threw in a few pieces of eggplant with it and it was fantastic!"
"I've made this at least six times," shares SamArt. "It's important to stir the cauliflower halfway through the baking process — it'll reduce burned (overly caramelized) spots. I used powdered garlic over fresh garlic because it mixes more evenly in the olive oil. A GREAT flavorful dish!"
"This is how I will be making cauliflower from now on," says Nancy F. "Special enough for a side dish for company."
