Paprika Roasted Cauliflower

2010 May 19

Roasting vegetables seems to be my favorite way to prepare them… and small wonder. Low maintenance, quick, crispy, and perfectly caramelized. This is a recipe my mom came up with, and now I just can’t eat cauliflower any other way. Well, that and the fact that paprika is one of the very precious few seasonings I can still eat (woot!). I swear I heard angels singing when I found out I could have paprika, basil, oregano and vanilla beans. I would probably just evaporate if I could no longer use vanilla!

Ok, here is the recipe. You’ll find that the smokey paprika adds a wonderful dimension to the slightly cripsly but stil crunchy cauliflower. Its just delicious.
