Notes

  • Store leftover roasted cauliflower in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • For the crispiest reheat, spread the cauliflower on a baking sheet and broil for a few minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.
  • This parmesan roasted cauliflower makes a delicious and easy side dish for roasted chicken or grilled steak.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking sheet; roasting in batches ensures maximum crispiness for each floret.
