  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons dried dill weed
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 medium head of cauliflower, cut into 1-inch florets
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup (113g) shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400ºF.
  2. In a large bowl, combine dill weed, parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. Spread cauliflower florets in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with the ranch seasoning blend. Toss well to coat evenly.
  4. Roast in the oven for 20 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender and golden brown.
  5. Turn off the oven. Sprinkle cheddar cheese evenly over the roasted cauliflower and return to the oven for about 5 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  6. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

  • Use pre-cut cauliflower florets for a quicker prep time.
  • For extra crispiness, broil for 1–2 minutes after adding the cheese.
  • Try mixing in cooked bacon bits or chopped scallions for added flavor.
