Food Friday

 Dear One brought me home two big fat heads of cauliflower last week.  I steamed one and ate it.  The other was getting a little elderly so I took off the bottom leaves, sprinkled it with a little olive oil (I know added oils are not good for us but I wanted the seasoning to stick. I used about a tablespoon and rubbed it all over the head).  After rubbing in the oil I made a mixture of about a teaspoonful of Herbes de Provence, one-half teaspoon granulated garlic and another half teaspoon of granulated onion, then some salt and pepper and sprinkled it on top of the cauliflower and rubbed it in the same way I imagine meat-eaters rub seasonings onto cuts of meat.

At this point I already had the oven heating to 400 degrees F. and had a big piece of aluminum foil sitting in our largest cast-iron frying pan.  I put the cauliflower into the foil, wrapped it up tight, then set the whole thing into the oven to "roast" for 45 minutes.

There it is, ready to eat!  I did eat several florets.  So luscious.  I could eat cauliflower every day.  Usually I eat it steamed because I can just steam it, leave it in the pot then every time I walk by, I pick out a floret and pop it into my mouth.  Very good eating.  Also a VERY good way to lose weight quickly!  There are next to no calories in steamed cauliflower and a lot of nutrition.
