Notes
Chopping the cauliflower: I like to chop into florets, then chop individual florets in half lengthwise to create a nice flat, broad side to lay flat on the sheet pan.
Parmesan cheese: I usually recommend freshly grated parmesan cheese, but in this recipe I love to use the pre-grated parmesan cheese that comes in the shaker can - it creates such a nice crispy, golden crust on the cauliflower.
Crispy cauliflower: for a a crispier crust on the cauliflower, line your baking sheet with parchment paper.
