Quality- would
make it again.
"My husband is not a huge cauliflower fan. I am- so I'm
always trying to find recipes that he'll eat! He absolutely LOVED
this recipe. I think it was the roasting of the cauliflower.
It brought out a different flavor. The addition of the green
olives was good too. I used the canned green olives rather than
bottled. I'll definitely be making this one again."
