FIRECRACKER CAULIFLOWER

~ Budget Bytes: Over 100 Easy, Delicious Recipes to Slash Your Grocery Bill in Half, written by Beth Moncel

freshly cracked pepper, to taste
1/4 t. garlic powder
1/4 t. cayenne
1/2 t. salt
1 T. paprika
1 large head cauliflower, cut into bite-size florets
2 T. oil

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Coat a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray.

In a small bowl, combine pepper, garlic powder, cayenne, salt, and paprika. Place cauliflower florets in a large bowl, then drizzle with oil and sprinkle with seasoning blend. Toss gently until cauliflower is well coated.

Spread in a single layer on baking sheet. Roast 30 minutes or until tender.

Notes: The name makes you think the cauliflower will be super spicy, but I don't like much spice and think it's delicious. Of course, if you prefer a lot of spice, you could add more cayenne to suit your taste. I skip the cooking spray, opting to use Pampered Chef's stoneware instead.
