Simple Side: Roasted Cauliflower
Simple side dishes are the best. You want something to accompany you main dish, but not take over the show. Roasted Cauliflower is an excellent choice for a side dish that is simple, but still full of flavor. Cauliflower takes on an almost candy-like flavor when it takes a trip through a toasty…
