Cooking instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Toss cauliflower in 1 TBSP of oil and spread into a single layer on a lined baking sheet. Roast for 20 min, tossing halfway. Set aside.
2. In a medium saucepan, whisk together cheese mix and 1/2 cup milk until combined. Add in 2 TBSP cubed butter and apply medium to medium-low heat. Gently stir until butter is melted and incorporated. Stirring occasionally, let thicken until bubbly, then reduce heat and simmer on low for 2 min.
3. Remove from heat and pour over roasted cauliflower, tossing lightly to evenly coat florets. Remove, add to plate, and enjoy!
