Chilli Bacon Lime Roasted Cauliflower

Chilli Bacon Lime Roasted Cauliflower is an easy side dish of roasted cauliflower seasoned with garlic and chilli dressed in scallion lime juice served with crispy bacon bits.

Last night I saw some leftover cauliflower on my vegetable bin and was wondering what to make out of it, so it does not go to waste. Many things came to mind like cauliflower rice, cauliflower curry, in tomato sauce or with cheese sauce or as a cheese sauce but I want something that has zing and freshness to it since I am making it as a side dish to a light mains. As I checked the cupboard I saw some dried chillies, chilli powder and some paprika, that did solved my problem as it will definitely will give the cauliflower some punch but it does not end there, so to make it even more exciting, I tossed some bacon bits and lime juice for that added flavour and this my friends was the result.
