Ingredients
1 head cauliflower, cut into florets
5 small sweet potatoes, cut into bite-sized pieces
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
½ teaspoon paprika
¼ teaspoon ground coriander
2 teaspoons fresh parsley, chopped
3 dashes coarse ground black pepper
Directions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly oil a large baking sheet with cooking spray or a thin coat of olive oil.
Spread the sweet potato pieces and cauliflower florets evenly across the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
Drizzle the olive oil over the vegetables, then toss gently to coat all pieces evenly.
In a small bowl, combine the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, ground coriander, fresh parsley, and black pepper.
Sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over the oiled vegetables and toss again to distribute the seasonings thoroughly.
Roast in the preheated oven for 30 minutes or until the vegetables are fork-tender and lightly caramelized at the edges.
Remove from the oven and serve hot as a side dish.
Comments
Both cauliflower and sweet potato are readily available year-round at every Charlotte chain—sweet potatoes especially, since North Carolina is a major producer and they're a Southern staple. The ingredient list contains only pantry seasonings and common produce, no special trips needed. Cost per serving runs roughly $0.80–$1.20 depending on cauliflower and sweet potato prices, making this genuinely budget-friendly for eight people. The stated 40 minutes is honest if you're cutting vegetables by hand and includes roasting time, though a food processor cuts prep to under 20 minutes total. This is a straightforward side dish that reheats well for leftovers and suits weeknight family meals without fussy technique or constant attention.
