Roasted Cauliflower And Cauliflower Leaves

featured in Food Scraps You Didn’t Know You Could Eat

Don’t throw away your cauliflower leaves! Cauliflower leaves are a great source of calcium, iron, and beta-carotene. When roasted, they have a similar texture to cabbage or bok choy, and make a delicious addition when mixed with roasted florets!
