'THYME' FOR SOME CAULIFLOWER

Steps:

• Put cauliflower florets into the steamer bag; add water. Season cauliflower with salt, thyme, garlic-pepper seasoning, and black pepper. Seal the bag and shake vigorously to coat florets in seasonings.
• Cook in microwave oven on High until cauliflower is tender, 3 1/2 to 4 minutes; let cool 2 minutes before opening bag.

FRENCH ROASTED CAULIFLOWER WITH THYME

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 400°F.
• Mix cauliflower, onions, and garlic together in a large roasting pan.
• Drizzle the vegetables with the oil, season them with the pepper and thyme, and toss gently to coat.
• Roast the vegetables uncovered for 20-35 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they turn golden brown. If you like, squeeze a little lemon juice over when serving. The smaller you chop the cauliflower, the less time it takes to bake. I love the crunchy brown bits, that's why I chop it all up so small! Enjoy!

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER WITH ANCHOVY, CAPERS, AND FRESH THYME

Steps:

• Roast the cauliflower: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Remove the green leaves from the cauliflower and reserve. Cut the cauliflower heads in half, then into bite-size florets. Cut the stalks into bite-size pieces also. Place the florets and stalk pieces in a roasting pan, and drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast until golden and tender, about 20 minutes. Transfer to a platter lined with paper towels to drain.
• Make the garlic chips: Pour 1/4 inch of oil into a small saucepan. Add the garlic and set the pan over medium heat. Heat the oil until the chips are golden and crisp, about 1 minute. Drain on paper towels and set aside.
• Make the anchovy sauce: Set a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and fry the anchovies, garlic, capers, and thyme, stirring with a wooden spoon to break up the anchovies and infuse the oil. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, until fragrant. Add the cream and Parmesan, and bring to a simmer. Just before serving, add the roasted cauliflower pieces and fold in the reserved leaves. Finish with a squeeze of lemon juice, and top with the fried garlic chips, cracked black pepper, and shaved Parmesan.

ROASTED MIXED VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Prepare the vegetables: Heat oven to 425 degrees. Add the vegetables to a rimmed sheet pan. Add 2 tablespoons oil, the salt, pepper and thyme (if using), and gently toss vegetables to coat. Use your hands to spread the vegetables out into one layer, spacing them evenly all over the pan.
• Transfer to the oven and roast until they are tender and browned, 30 to 40 minutes, stirring at least once during roasting for even cooking.
• While vegetables roast, you can make yogurt sauce if you like: In a small bowl, combine yogurt, garlic, oil, salt and pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning. Cover and place in the refrigerator until ready to use.
• Serve roasted vegetables with a dollop of garlic yogurt, if desired, and a drizzle of oil on top.
