Bring Me Your Head on a Platter! Cauliflower

"OK just the Brain Food here! This is a take off of my Recipe #106251 using a different method to keep it looking like a brain for Halloween. Do take note all microwaves cook differently so take care when roasting not to over do. Oh by the way cauliflower is Brain food! A recent study done by McLean Hospital, an affiliate of Harvard Medical School, suggests that taking a minimum of 500mg of citicoline supplements a day can help boost mental energy and efficacy. Citicoline, a natural substance found in all living cells, can also be ingested via cauliflower—a source of choline, which is converted to citicoline in the brain!"

  1. This was sooooooo great! It was easy to prepare and had great taste! The cauliflower was soft on the inside with a crunchy crust and the garlic and rosemary added a superb flavour! I had to use dried rosemary, but still it was very fragrant. Mmmm!<br/>The presentation was stunning and I think the cheesy version would be gruesome for Halloween. :)<br/>THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing this easy, healthy, tasty and special recipe with us, Rita!<br/>Made and reviewed for our VIP during Veggie Swap #29 December 2010.
