Smoky Baked Cauliflower Bites
1 head cauliflower, washed and cut into cut bite size pieces
1-2 Tablespoons olive oil
smoked paprika (approx 1 teaspoon)
good pinch of salt
1 Tablespoon bacon grease (optional)
Mix together all but the cauliflower.
Add cauliflower and toss until coated.
Heat jelly roll pan (cookie sheet with sides) in a 350 degree oven. Add bacon grease from fridge and let it melt. Swirling to cover the bottom of the sheet (or I used a baking stone.) The cauliflower will shrink so it's OK if they touch a little.
Bake for 35-40 minutes flipping half way through the cooking until they are soft and caramelized.
Enjoy!
Looks great and super tasty!

ReplyDeleteShe still dips it in a little ranch but we don't let her have much. She loves it!
DeleteThese look really good Jenny. Of course how can anything with bacon or bacon grease be bad? :) I'm stopping by from the Let's Get Real Friday link party. That's so much for linking up and sharing this with us. I hope you'll join us again on Friday.
