Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Place the cauliflower florets in a large mixing bowl.

- After the cauliflower is roasted, remove the baking sheet from the oven.
- Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the hot cauliflower florets.
- Return the baking sheet to the oven for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and slightly golden.

Tips:
- Make sure to cut the cauliflower into even-sized florets to ensure they cook evenly.
- For an extra crispy texture, spread the florets out on the baking sheet so they are not touching each other.
- You can add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes if you like a bit of heat.
- Consider tossing the florets halfway through the roasting process for an even golden brown color.
- Using freshly grated Parmesan cheese will give a better flavor compared to pre-grated varieties.
