Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 400°F. Cut the 1 head cauliflower into small florets and toss with 2 tbsp olive oil, 0.5 tsp salt, and 0.25 tsp black pepper in a large bowl.

  2. Step 2

    Spread the cauliflower in a single layer in a 9x13 inch baking dish. Roast for 15 minutes, until slightly tender and browned at the edges.

  3. Step 3

    Pour 0.5 cup heavy cream over the roasted cauliflower and sprinkle with 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese.

  4. Step 4

    Return to oven and bake for 5-7 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the top is golden. Serve hot.
