Quick Roasted Carrots and Cauliflower with Walnuts

Getting reviews...
Cutting your vegetables into small pieces and roasting at a very high temperature not only ensures your side will be ready quickly, it also caramelizes the vegetables, enhancing their natural sweetness. Roasted cauliflower has a great meaty quality to it so if you are going for a meatless meal, double the recipe and make this the star of your plate.

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
