My mom is probably squirming with joy at that statement. She used to make my sister and I eat cooked carrots and I hated them…with a capital H. Nevertheless, as I got older I began to appreciate the taste of vegetables, many kinds, the various ways to cook them and their nutritional value!
One of my favorite veggies is cauliflower and one of my favorite condiments is mustard. Yellow, grain, honey, spicy, pretty much all kinds! Well, there is some German in my lineage so I’m positive that’s where my love of mustard originates. Is there a condiment or smear you like?
I was online and inspired by this recipe. (A) Because it’s simple and (B) It’s packed with flavor and good things for your body. Cauliflower contains anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits! I decided to add Herbs de Provence to the line-up because I love those aromatic flavors. Eat up friends!
Spicy Mustard Roasted Cauliflower
Inspired by this recipe
3 Tbls spicy mustard
11/2 Tbls extra-virgin olive oil
1 pinch of sea salt
1 pinch of ground pepper
1 Tbls Herbs de Provence
2 head(s) (about 2 pounds) cauliflower, cut into 1-inch florets
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
In a bowl, whisk the mustard, oil, Herbs de Provence and season with salt and pepper. Toss in the cauliflower; spread on a baking sheet. Roast for 30 minutes. Enjoy!
I love the spicy mustard sauce! Can’t wait to try it!
I think you’ll enjoy it. A nice switch from the classic roasted veggie with just olive oil.
Being that I love cauliflower and mustard too I know this can be my new favorite way to eat my veggies. Thanks Allison!
Yay! Thanks for stopping by, Marla. xxoo
Mmm, that sounds good and I have a head of cauliflower in the fridge just waiting to be used 🙂 I love how you mentioned that you hated cooked carrots as a kid. So did I. But I really do appreciate veggies more now 🙂
I love roasted cauliflower, and that’s almost always how I make it at home. Never tried mustard, though — great idea! Thanks for the tip.
yum! isn’t it so funny how you can grow up hating one thing and later in love come to love it. sounds like me and most food surprisingly, especially cauliflower and now i love love love it!
Unusual, but it looks delicious!
I am a huge fan of roasted veggies and have an equal love of everything mustard, so I can’t wait to try this!
This looks awesome. I love roasted cauliflower. Can’t wait to make this.

Those look fantastic. If only my wife like cauliflower. Maybe the next time she works a night….:)
Looks like a great pair to some roast meat. Yum!
Cauliflower is so underrated and not used enough. What a great way to enjoy it!
Mustard is my go-to condiment for just about anything these days (e.g. sweet potato fries, veggie burger, falafel)… especially now since I’ve developed an allergy to ketchup/tomatoes! Will try this recipe for dinner tonight, thanks!
Easy + giant slathering of mustard = deliciousness!
You got that right. Thanks for stopping by!
I’m not a big mustard fan but this DOES make me want to try roasted cauliflower!
we seem to have the same no time for blogging during this gorgeous summer time problem. just wanted to tell you i miss you!
I make all sorts of salad dressings with mustard – and now you’ve given me a great new idea. I’m sure my family will thank you!

This sounds so good! I love roasted cauliflower, but I’ve only made it with salt and nutmeg. Thank you for the inspiration to change it up this fall.
This looks intriguing! I love cauliflower!
