Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 425.

Step 2

Bring a large pot of water to a boil, add the cauliflower, cover and cook for about 10 minutes until it is slightly tender but not too tender.

Step 3

Carefully remove, allow excess water to drip off then place on a lined baking sheet.

Step 4

Sprinkle the salt, pepper and oregano evenly over the top. Drizzle with the oil, then place in the oven and bake for 34-38 minutes, until the top is browned.

Step 5

While the cauliflower roasts, make the dressing and the topping.

Step 6

Make the dressing. In a small bowl add the vinegar, mustard, oil, maple syrup, salt, pepper, garlic powder and scallions. Whisk to combine. Set aside.

Step 7

Make the topping. Add the macadamia nuts to a cutting board and roughly chop them a few times, add the parsley to the chopped nuts and continue to chop. Add the lemon zest, salt, red pepper flakes and Parmesan cheese. Using the knife, chop and mix together until well combined. Set aside.

Step 8

Remove the cauliflower from the oven, drizzle the dressing over the top, followed by the crunchy topping and the pomegranate seeds.
