Roasted cauliflower is great on its own, but combine it with a bit of curry powder and you have a mild and lovely flavored dish that can accompany any Indian meal. It is the perfect side dish for sauteed chicken or fish.
I love “spicy hot” so I add a few dashes of Cayenne pepper which adds another dimension to this easy to make dish.
Great for these diets: Keto, Paleo, and any Low-Carb diet.

Coconut Flakes:
NOTE: The flakes are a bit too big so I measure out 3/4 of a cup and then chop the flakes into a finer “shred.” Works perfectly!
