Ingredients

  • 1 head cauliflower, chopped into florets

  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F. Add most ingredients to a bowl except for the butter, garlic and parmesan cheese. Toss to combine until everything is well coated. Add to your baking sheet in an even layer.
