Ingredients

1 head cauliflower, cut into florets

2 tablespoons olive oil

sea salt to taste

2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F.

  2. Rinse the cauliflower head and pat dry. Cut into evenly-sized florets, keeping pieces roughly 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter for consistent cooking.

  3. Spread the cauliflower florets on a baking sheet in a single layer. Drizzle with olive oil and toss gently until all pieces are lightly coated.

  4. Roast in the preheated oven for 15 to 18 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the tops of the florets turn golden brown and the centers are fork-tender.

  5. Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle with sea salt and grated parmesan cheese while still warm. Toss lightly to combine and serve.

All ingredients are stocked year-round at any Charlotte-area Harris Teeter, Food Lion, Walmart, or ALDI, with no specialty stops required. The cost per serving runs under $2, driven by affordable cauliflower and pantry staples, making it genuinely budget-friendly. The stated 26 minutes is honest—roughly 5 minutes to trim and cut the head, 20 minutes roasted, minimal active time. This is a reliable, no-fuss side that reheats perfectly in a 350-degree oven and works for weeknight families or meal prep alike.
