This simple 5-ingredient side dish of roasted potatoes and cauliflower is packed with nutrients and full of roasted garlic flavor.
As you know if you read my post on 5 Reasons to Eat the Rainbow Every Day, I am a firm believer in eating a large variety of colorful foods every day. Not only does it keep mealtime more interesting but it’s one of the easiest ways to stay healthy.
The mission is simple: fill half your plate with fruits and vegetables and stay active to help make a difference in the fight against breast cancer.
You know I love brightly colored foods like green Swiss chard and purple eggplant but did you know that white produce is also loaded in important health benefits? Made with creamy yukon gold potatoes, caramelized garlic, tender cauliflower and fresh scallions, just one serving of Garlic Roasted Potatoes and Cauliflower will provide more than a day’s recommended value of Vitamin C and 6 grams of heart-healthy fiber.
In the meantime, add these Garlic Roasted Potatoes and Cauliflower to your next meal plan. If your family is anything like mine, it’s going to be a new favorite.
Your fork is waiting.
Garlic Roasted Potatoes and Cauliflower
Ingredients
- 8 Bushwick yukon gold potatoes quartered
- 10 ounce bag Eat Smart® cauliflower florets
- 8 cloves garlic - whole unpeeled
- 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

January 17, 2018 at 3:30 pmI have just read through ALL your cauliflower recipes and I love the ideas. I am a vegetable lover although not a vegetarian and these recipes are brilliant. Sometimes you just can’t think of a new way to cook these wonderful vegetables. Thankyou for your inventiveness!

April 11, 2017 at 2:30 pmAre you supposed to peel the garlic cloves prior to roasting? Or do you roast them with the peels and then peel before serving?

April 12, 2017 at 3:01 pmI don’t but you can! We just pop the cloves out of the skin before eating them. :)

October 27, 2016 at 7:08 pmskip the plastic big and just use a large bowl….plastic adds toxins to our environment which increases the risk of many cancers.

October 22, 2015 at 7:39 amThe directions seem to indicate that the potatoes do NOT get added to the bag and tossed to coat. Is that correct? Only cauliflower through pepper get put into the bag?
