Cauliflower Florets!

What do you do when it turns out that you don’t have ANY of the spices called for in a recipe? You wing it. That’s what you do.

Ingredients

• 1 head Cauliflower
• 3 Tbs Extra Virgin Olive Oil
• Spices (I used 1/2 tsp Celtic Sea Salt, 1/2 tsp Cinnamon, 1/2 Cayenne Pepper (use less. Maybe 1/4 tsp), and 1/2 tsp Basil)

Directions

• Preheat the oven to 400 F
• Wash and chop up the Cauliflower (try to get keep them 1/2 to 1/4 of an inch thick.
• Put the Cauliflower on a sheet
• Brush Olive Oil on top
• Sprinkle a mixture of spices on all the pieces of Cauliflower (I used Celtic Sea Salt, Cinnamon, Cayenne Pepper, & Basil. But you can really do anything you want).
• Bake on the bottom rack for 25-35 minutes (until they’re cooked all the way through. ie translucent and crispy)
• Eat!!

Leftovers

• I always think that it’s hardest to follow a recipe that doesn’t have any pictures. I had my own idea of how I wanted this recipe to go and I still don’t know if that is what eatocracy intended.  But ultimately that doesn’t really matter.  They suggested some spices to use, but also stipulated that you can use whatever spices you want. So, I guess this recipe can be whatever you want it to be, which is pretty awesome.

• While I used to much Cayenne Pepper and cut the Cauliflower a bit too thick, I still consider this recipe a success.  It was a tasty, simple snack that I munched on for the rest of the day. I say go for it.

Thank you so much to eatocracy.com for the recipe!

Good luck!
