salt and pepper
lemon wedges or sauce for serving
Heat oven to 425 F. Toss vegetables with oil, seasoning, salt, and pepper on a large sheet pan.

Rest for a few minutes, then serve buffalo cauliflower bites with lemon wedges or a quick sauce.
Do not crowd the pan. Use two pans if needed.
Cut vegetables small enough to finish at the same time as the protein.
Taste before serving and adjust with salt, pepper, citrus, herbs, or sauce depending on the dish.
Refrigerate up to 4 days.
Reheat in the oven or air fryer to bring back crisp edges.
Yes. It reheats well, especially if reheated in an oven or air fryer.
The pan was too crowded or the vegetables were too wet.
Yes, but roast them from frozen and expect softer texture.
