Have you ever noticed that baked cauliflower sort of looks like brain tissue? At least I hope that's cauliflower... :)
We had a good laugh about that. Absolutely delicious. Sauce up the head and bake the shizzle out of it in a 425 - 450 °F for an hour or so until near char then remove from oven, mustard then feta and parsley pack. Back in oven until cheese melts.

Sauce:

  • ½

    cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 4

    tablespoons dijon mustard, divided
  • 1

    tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 2

    teaspoons honey
  • 2

    medium garlic cloves, finely grated


  • Kosher salt and ground black pepper
  • 2
    ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
    pound head cauliflower, trimmed
  • 2
    +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
    ounces feta cheese, crumbled (½ cup)
  • ¼

    cup finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
  1. 01

    Heat the oven to 450°F with a rack in the middle position. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil or kitchen parchment. In a small bowl, whisk until creamy the oil, 2½ tablespoons of mustard, the vinegar, honey, garlic, ½ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Measure ¼ cup of the mixture into a small bowl and set aside.
  2. 02

    Place the cauliflower on the prepared baking sheet and brush the surface with the remaining oil-mustard mixture. Roast until deeply browned and a skewer inserted all the way through the head and into the core meets just a little resistance, 40 to 55 minutes.
  3. 03

    While the cauliflower roasts, in a small bowl, toss together the feta and parsley. When the cauliflower is ready, remove the baking sheet from the oven. Brush the remaining 1½ tablespoons mustard over the surface, then pat on the feta-parsley mixture, pressing so that it adheres. Return to the oven and continue to roast until the feta begins to melt, 5 to 8 minutes.
  4. 04

    Using a wide metal spatula, transfer the cauliflower to a cutting board, then cut the head into 4 wedges. Serve with lemon wedges and the reserved oil-mustard mixture.

I’m sending mom this recipe. Thank You

Sorry for the formatting. Just copy to a note or word or whatever and clean up. I just copied and pasted from Milk Street. They have some good recipe but it costs money to join. I stole this when the wife did the $1 membership thing.

That said you know me, don't actually follow a recipe*, but should be good if you follow this one.

*recipes slow me down too much!
