Ingredients
1 head cauliflower, cut into 1-inch florets
1 lemon, cut in half
4 garlic cloves, peeled
3 tablespoons capers
3 anchovies (optional)
¼ cup olive oil, plus more for drizzling
2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more if needed
1 teaspoon ground pepper, plus more if needed
12 ounces Carbe Diem™ Rotini
½ cup grated Pecorino cheese
1 cup whole milk ricotta
½ cup chopped parsley

Steps
Preheat oven to 425°. Spread cauliflower, lemon halves, garlic, capers, and anchovies on a rimmed baking sheet. (If needed, use 2 baking sheets to prevent over-crowding). Drizzle with ¼ cup olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Toss until vegetables are well coated. Roast for 25 to 30 minutes, until cauliflower is tender and beginning to char.
Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Cook rotini according to package directions until al dente, 13 to 15 minutes. Drain.
Squeeze lemon halves over cauliflower mixture. Transfer mixture to a serving bowl, then add rotini and Pecorino cheese. Stir well to combine. Drizzle with additional olive oil if desired, then top pasta with dollops of ricotta cheese and chopped parsley. Serve immediately.
