Smoky and Spicy Roasted Cauliflower  - 4.5g Carbs, 2g Fiber, 1.7g Sugar

From: Good and Cheap on 4 dollars a day
Roasted veggies are always delicious, but there's something magical that happens to cauliflower in the oven. It gets so crispy and nutty, and that flavor is brought out even more with the spices here. I'm happy to just eat a bowl of this for dinner, maybe with an egg on top.
Serves: 4

1 head cauliflower, cut into small pieces
2 cloves garlic, unpeeled
1 Tbsp butter, melted
1 tsp smoked paprika
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
Salt
Pepper

Turn the oven to 400 degrees F.

In a medium-sized roasting pan, arrange the cauliflower pieces and the unpeeled cloves of garlic. Pour the butter over the cauliflower and
then sprinkle the spices over top. Use your hands to thoroughly coat the cauliflower with butter and spices.

Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour, depending on how crispy you like the florets. Squeeze the roasted garlic throughout and trash the skins.
