Ingredients:

  • 1 medium head of cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 8 oz (about 225g) mushrooms, sliced (any variety you prefer)

  5. Finish and Serve: Remove the skillet from heat. Drizzle the remaining tablespoon of olive oil if desired, and sprinkle with fresh parsley. If you like a bit of spice, add red pepper flakes to taste.
  6. Enjoy: Serve the garlic mushrooms cauliflower skillet warm as a side dish or a light main course!
