Ingredients

- 1 large head of cauliflower, cut into florets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2–3 tablespoons taco seasoning (adjust to taste for spice level)
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon cumin
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional garnishes: fresh cilantro, lime wedges, sour cream, salsa
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash the cauliflower thoroughly and cut it into bite-sized florets.
- In a large bowl, combine olive oil, taco seasoning, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and pepper, whisking until well mixed.
- Add the cauliflower florets to the bowl and toss until evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.

Notes

- Spread out the florets to avoid steaming.
- Roast at high heat for optimal flavor development.
- Adjust taco seasoning to your preference for spiciness.
