Your Favorite Food Combos
What foods do you LOVE to eat together?? And when/if eaten separately it feels wrong???
Like for me Spinach and Feta Cheese. I LOVE LOVE this combination of flavors. Another would be Ham and Cheddar Cheese, I just can't have one with out the other.

It's ridiculously simple.
Break up your cauliflower into pieces. Toss with salt/pepper/spices (you can really have fun with curry, or wasabi, or garlic, or anything else you can dream up) and a little olive oil (I leave out the oil more often then not). Toss it on a cookie sheet or pan. Put in the oven at 425 until the edges start to darken, about 25-30 mins.
You can roast ALL vegetables like this. I can't wait for winter to start so that the root veggies and winter squashes come in season. I'll eat roasted veggies 2 out of 3 meals all winter long.

I agree with Pacifica... roasted vegetables are the best way to cook them. We had roasted cauliflower with just a garlic and herb spice mixture on top tonight and it was really yummy. I can easily eat half the head by myself in one sitting when it's cooked that way. The only one that I've had a hard time getting right is Broccoli.... if you have any good suggestions on how to do it without the very ends being burnt please let me know.

Same here. I love roast broccoli, but I can't get the temp and timing right, it's either too raw or burnt. That elusive middle ground is hard to find.
