From steamed to baked, cauliflower is always delicious; especially Italian roasted cauliflower. However, this dish may be my very favorite of them all! A medley of herbs, cheese and breadcrumbs bring out the best that cauliflower has to offer. This recipe roasts the cauliflower to give it a crisp texture, complemented with the melty cheese, this dish will make every mouth smile. Eat it by itself for a light meal or serve as a side course for larger meals.
