BBQ Cauliflower Bites are a deliciously smoky and tangy vegetarian treat that brings the flavors of outdoor grilling right to your kitchen. Perfectly roasted, these bites are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, making them an irresistible snack or appetizer.

Ingredients

• Cauliflower - 1 medium head (about 600g)
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Smoked paprika - 1 teaspoon
• Garlic powder - 1 teaspoon
• Onion powder - 1 teaspoon

Steps

1. Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
2. Wash and cut the cauliflower into bite-sized florets.
3. In a large bowl, combine the cauliflower florets with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the florets are evenly coated.
4. Spread the cauliflower on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper in a single layer.
5. Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the edges are golden and crispy.
