Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Spread the cauliflower on the baking sheet, drizzle with 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Toss to coat. Spread cauliflower evenly on the baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes, tossing once, or until browned and tender.
- Meanwhile, toast the pine nuts (1/4 cup) carefully in a medium, dry skillet over medium heat. Keep an eye on them- they are easy to burn! Once they begin to turn fragrant and have a light brown color, add the raisins (1/4 cup), remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, and lemon juice to the skillet. Cook for about one more minute on very low heat, or until raisins have softened and plumped a bit.
- Turn off heat and stir in the parsley (1/4 cup) and lemon zest.
- Toss the roasted cauliflower with the pine nut and raisin mixture. Serve immediately when it's warm, or allow to cool to room temperature so the flavors marry a bit. Add more salt and pepper if necessary.

PAN-ROASTED CAULIFLOWER WITH PINE NUTS, GARLIC AND ROSEMARY
My BF found this recipe in a recent issue of Cottage Living, courtesy of Sara Foster. We both love cauliflower, and this recipe gives it a nice crunch and nutty taste. Another recipe to leave in the oven while you are taking care of the rest of dinner. We cut down the 1/4 cup olive oil to about a tablespoon. Leave it as is if you are not concerned about fat intake.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Core the cauliflower heads and cut into florets. Place on a rimmed baking sheet, drizzle with 2 tbsp. of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast, turning once, until just tender - 25-30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 2 tbsp. olive oil, vinegar and lemon juice. Season the vinaigrette with salt and pepper and stir in the raisins.
- Transfer the warm cauliflower to a serving dish and drizzle with the vinaigrette. Sprinkle with the parsley, lemon zest and pine nuts. To marry the flavors, let cool to room temperature before serving.
Tips:
- Choose the right cauliflower: Look for a head of cauliflower that is compact and has tightly packed florets. Avoid heads with any signs of bruising or discoloration.
- Roast the cauliflower at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy exterior and tender interior.
- Use a variety of spices and herbs: This will add flavor and depth to the roasted cauliflower.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the cauliflower will steam instead of roast.
- Roast the cauliflower until it is tender: You can check this by piercing it with a fork. If the fork goes in easily, the cauliflower is done.
- Serve the roasted cauliflower immediately: This is when it is at its best.
Conclusion:
