This recipe is a great starting point, but it's also a great opportunity to experiment. I added some chopped sun-dried tomatoes and artichoke hearts to mine, and it was delicious.

I'm not a fan of capers, so I omitted them from the recipe. The cauliflower was still delicious, but I think it would have been even better with the capers.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cauliflower didn't turn out as crispy as I would have liked. I think I may have roasted it at too low a temperature.

This cauliflower dish was a hit! The flavors of the olive oil, capers, and garlic complemented each other perfectly, and the cauliflower was roasted to perfection. I will definitely be making this again.
