Cauliflower

So I have a new way to enjoy eating cauliflower -- roasted. I found it on Brownie Points. It's such a simple recipe: a little oil, a little salt and cauliflower. I've never enjoyed eating cooked cauliflower because of the mushy texture and metallic taste. My favorite way to eat cauliflower is marinated in a vegetable salad. Lots of raw vegetables (tomatoes, olives, cauliflower, broccoli, mushrooms, carrots, onions), Italian salad dressing (a herby vinaigrette), and time. Marinated vegetables are best eaten in the summer though, with burgers and chips at the lake. But roasted cauliflower is just what I need since cauliflower is in season now when it's getting colder each day.

Hurray for new ways to eat vegetables! My hunt continues for a way to enjoy eating squash -- now that would be an amazing recipe.

Is it a little bit crunchy? I HATE mushy veggies.

How are you feeling today?

It's not so much crunchy as crispy around the edges. But it is definitely not mushy!

I'm feeling better, thanks for asking. The pain in my shoulder (doctor says I have whiplash from keeping my head up in the fall) is slowly decreasing so I'm hopeful that it will be much better next week.
