Roasted Cauliflower

1 head cauliflower
6 cloves garlic, finely chopped
5 strips bacon, chopped

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.  Cut the cauliflower into florets that are approximately the same size. Place cauliflower on a baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray.  

 Sprinkle chopped garlic over top.  

 Arrange bacon over cauliflower. 

Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until golden brown on the edges, stirring the cauliflower a couple of times while baking.

The weather is warming up and I only have a few days left to use my oven before it gets too hot.  I love to roast vegetables!  This recipe and my Roasted Brussels Sprouts recipe are two of my families favorites.  Roasting gives the vegetables a rich and I think a slightly sweet flavor.  I end up eating more vegetables than meat when they are roasted, and that is a good reason to heat the kitchen up a little.

My new cookbook is available at schools, businesses, hospitals, and book fairs in cities across the United States.  Be sure to pick up a copy or two, when you see them.  They make great gifts!
