Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat a baking dish with cooking spray.

  2. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and season with 2 tablespoons salt. Add cauliflower and cook until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Drain well and place between several layers of paper towels to dry. Transfer cauliflower to a large mixing bowl and set aside.
