For a richer flavor, try using roasted garlic instead of minced garlic.
Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the Parmesan mixture for a touch of heat.
To ensure even cooking, rotate the cauliflower halfway through the baking time.
A mandoline can be used to evenly slice the cauliflower. Alternatively, you can roast the florets instead of the entire head. Reduce the cooking time if you choose this method.

    I roasted mine for a bit longer to get a really dark, caramelized crust. So delicious!

    The Parmesan crust is so flavorful. I added a little lemon zest to the mayo mixture, and it was amazing!
