Using several varieties of colorful cauliflower makes this Roasted Cauliflower perfect for kids, Easter, and anytime you need a beautiful side dish.

I was inspired recently by all the beautiful colors of cauliflower at the store.  I think I bought one of every variety.  They all taste the same, but all the colors in the serving bowl made me happy and really made the kids excited to eat some.

I just used my go-to roasted cauliflower recipe for this, but I switched up the varieties.  Since I had so much cauliflower, I chopped it up with the other vegetable and put it in gallon baggies (in the amounts that my family will eat at supper) and placed in the fridge for later in the week.  I made it several times in one week and no one complained.  Now, that’s a good side dish!
