How many does this serve?
Do I remove the dish of water once I’m ready to put the cauliflower in the oven? Or do I leave both dishes in there?
Thank you for your question, Victoria. Please keep both dishes in the oven.
wonderful recipe. Had it as a side dish last night. Both delicious and healthy. Thank you!
Norma, we’re so glad that you enjoyed it! Thank you for your review!
Hey! Quick question! How hard would it be to do this with frozen cauliflower?
Lauryn, frozen cauliflower tends to get soggy but you can give it a try.
Simple, and not to mention delicious! Thank you.
Thank you, Sofiya! 😉
It’s a great snack. I must try it.
You definitely should, Cary! It’s a guilt-free snack. 😉
Is it celery salt or seed?
Celery Seed
I’m a little confused. Do you put the cauliflower in the baking dish with the water? If so how much water and then you cover with foil. This seems to be steaming the cauliflower not roasting.
Karen, thanks for the question. We added additional instructions to the recipe’s directions. We hope you’ll enjoy it!
Could you bring this someone house and reheat
Yes, you can! 🙂
