Chipotle Lime Roasted Cauliflower

Time to spice up your vegetable side. I can’t handle a side of steamed broccoli with a plain chicken breast when I’m trying to be healthy. Any kind of diet along those lines is so bland and unappealing that I’m bound to fail. So here’s one of many solutions. Hooray for cauliflower!
