Lemon Garlic Roasted Cauliflower


Many of us have forgotten how to use this veg in its true form because we've become used to changing it to a "rice" or a "mash". Time for a good roasted cauliflower and there are so many ways you can dress it up.  It's great as a side dish along with a protein, or even tossed in a salad.
