Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 medium head of cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 3 large carrots, peeled and sliced into 1/4-inch rounds
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

  • Chili flakes (optional)
  • Fresh parsley or cilantro (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Prepare the vegetables by cutting the cauliflower into bite-sized florets and slicing the carrots into 1/4-inch rounds.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the cauliflower and carrots. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Toss until well-coated.
  4. Arrange the seasoned vegetables on a baking sheet in a single layer.
