• Place potato/cauliflower in large bowl or plastic bag. Please note it is important that the cauliflower is about the same size as the potatoes to ensure even cooking. The more caramelized the cauliflower the sweeter it becomes.

• Turn your oven to 400.
• Place potatoes and cauliflower florets into a large bowl and shake as you drizzle with your oil to get them evenly covered. In a small bowl, mix together all your spices.
