Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

- In a mixing bowl, toss the cauliflower florets with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
- Spread the seasoned florets on the baking sheet in a single layer and roast for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through for even browning.
