Garlic and Parmesan Roasted Cauliflower

I really don't know what it is about me and cauliflower.  I just LOVE it especially roasted and with cheese!  I could eat it just roasted or steamed with salt and pepper too!  So when I had a head of cauliflower, some garlic, and Parmesan cheese, I made this spectacular dish!  In fact, I loved it so much, I was looking forward to eating the rest of it for lunch the next day, but the hubby had a midnight snack and ate it all.... :o(  DARN HIM!!!
