This is a variation of our oven roasted cauliflower base recipe. We love roasting vegetables in general, but there is something almost magical about cauliflower when it is roasted!

Notes
If using a whole head of cauliflower, be sure to cut it into uniform, bite-sized pieces. If using bagged florets, break large pieces into smaller pieces.
