Roasted Orange Cauliflower Recipe

Roasted orange cauliflower

Roasted cauliflower is delicious. Roasted orange cauliflower is even better. I found some beautiful organic orange cauliflower at the farmer’s market the other day and I was just dying to make something with it.  I have had a hankering for roasted cauliflower lately, so I came up with this recipe.  The hint of flavor comes from a pinch of cumin and a squeeze of lemon.  My friend Alecio said it reminded him of an Indian-style Ghobi dish. I bet this would be yummy with a little cheese on top also.  If you can’t find orange cauliflower this would still taste great with regular white cauliflower.
