Ingredients

  • 1 head cauliflower (cut into florets)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt, pepper and garlic powder, to taste

  • Bake for 20 minutes, until edges start to crisp.
  • Sprinkle cheese on each piece of cauliflower and return to the oven for 5-8 minutes.
  • Mix together the Greek yogurt and ranch seasoning. Serve with the crispy smashed cheesy cauliflower.
