These healthy little treats work well as a side or as fun bite size appetizers. Roasting the cauliflower adds deep flavor and gives it an irresistible crunch. —Courtney Stultz, Weir, Kansas

Test Kitchen tips

Give these bites even more smoky, spicy flavor by dipping them in chipotle mayo.

Want even more heat? Squirt a little sriracha or hot pepper sauce on them as soon as they come out of the oven.

If you really like smoky flavors, use smoked Spanish-style paprika.

This cauliflower recipe is a go-to favorite for Christmas appetizers or easy Thanksgiving appetizers, especially since preparation is so simple.
