Roasted Curry Cauliflower and Garlic Kale Raab

PWM_RoastedCauliflowerKaleRaab.jpg

Roasting vegetables might be one of my favorite way to prepare almost any veggie. It’s also fairly simple and doesn’t take much time. After harvesting kale raab (pre-flower, nearly bolted part of kale) and having several heads of cauliflower that were in desperate need of being used before they became compost, I put these two side dishes together. They are not unique, but they are flavorful, simple, and can be tweaked for the flavor you are looking for. Roasted vegetables always make a great, quick side dish!
