Cauliflower is one of my favorite vegetables to roast.  It’s so versatile; you can serve it for an appetizer, side dish, or toss in a salad.  Besides the delectable savory taste, cauliflower is a member of the cruciferous family of vegetables which helps prevent cancer and cardiovascular disease.  It is anti-inflammatory and antioxidant-rich for strengthening the immune system and improving brain health.
