OMG. This is so amazing, it never actually makes it to the plate, ever. Al and I look like vultures over a carcass fighting over pieces. I came across this online and thought "Really? Roast cauliflower?" But, I promise, this is the very best way I've ever eaten cauliflower. And is sooooo easy.
Preheat oven to 450 degrees
In a large bowl combine:
1/4 C olive oil
juice 1 lemon
2 cloves garlic, mashed
salt and pepper to taste
Chop 1 head of cauliflower into florets, toss into lemon oil mixture.
Dump all into a large baking dish to make one even layer, drizzle leftover lemon oil mix on top.
Roast 12-15 minutes or so. You want slightly burnt pieces, not too burnt though.
Remove from oven and devour!
I imagine you could roast nearly any veggie this way, but this is hands down our favorite.

Yum! It was delicious!
I found the pieces that had been drenched with the lemon oil were delicious~ but some pieces were very dry. Would you cover a dish like this to trap moisture?
I wouldn't cover it, you'd miss the wonderful browning that goes on. Maybe up the amount of liquids or toss a little more to make sure everything was well coated.
