Ingredients

  • 1 large head cauliflower
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 4 tablespoons butter melted
  • 4 ounces cream cheese softened to room temperature
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 1/2 cups sharp cheddar cheese shredded
  • 1   cup gouda cheese shredded
  • cooking spray
  • 2 tablespoon fresh parsley optional garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425° then line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  • Cut the cauliflower head into florets then transfer to the baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, salt, pepper and garlic powder then gently toss to coat. 
  • Roast cauliflower 15-18 minutes on a lower oven rack until tender-crisp and lightly brown on the bottom.
