Sweet, buttery, juicy, and spicy whole roasted cauliflower surrounded by fluffy salty potatoes for dinner.
Sometimes we all just need a hug! Hearty, starchy, and butter comfort food can give you that hug you are looking for! Comfort is all about how you treat yourself and nourish your soul. You don’t need to go on a yoga retreat in Bali to to do that (but Tom if you are reading this lets go please lol). Little things through out the week can fill up your happy vibes. Dinner is my favorite way especially when it feels like a decadent meal nut is super healthy for you!
Normally Tom (my husband) does not feel satisfied unless meat is on his plate for dinner. I was sooo surprised that he loved this recipe. He felt full and satisfied from a veggie dinner. Cauliflower is one of those superhero veggies that is both hearty and caramelize so well in the oven (with very little work). Usually, roasting whole cauliflower takes a full hour to get the inside cooked. Also, (with most recipes) there is only flavor on top but no flavor in the middle of the cauliflower. I solved both problems by boiling the cauliflower in flavored water for 10 minutes. This cuts the time in 30 minutes and gets lots of flavor in the middle. This recipe is so inspiring because there is always a way to make life easier and happier. You just need figure out the why and find the solution. I hope this recipe makes life so much easier for you. Remember you can do anything and deserve a delicious meal to celebrate you!
Cooking Hack That Makes This Recipe Weeknight Worthy:
- Boil the Cauliflower for 10 minutes! This cuts the roasting time in half. Instead of an hour in the oven its now 30 minutes.
- Seasoned water adds flavor to the middle. Adding seasoning and butter to the boiling water give the inside of the cauliflower flavor.
- Add potatoes with the cauliflower makes a complete meal in one. Adding veggies around the cauliflower makes less work and a fabulous main and side.
