Not everyone likes cauliflower, but this was a win in our house. Everybody liked it. Something about the lemon and cumin, I think. I didn't bother with the skewers either. I did overcook it a bit but it still turned out great and was easy to make. I will definitely make it again.

A tasty way to spice up these vegetables, but not quite something to write home about.

I agree w/ the review that said forget the skewers. Because roasted veggies tend to fall apart, they didn't stay on the skewers so good. Next time I'll put this recipe over a bed of rice. It was so yum.
