Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Remove the leaves and stem from the cauliflower head and chop it into bite-sized florets.
In a large bowl, toss the cauliflower florets with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
Spread the cauliflower evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Roast the cauliflower in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until it is tender and golden brown, stirring halfway through.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the roasted cauliflower.
Return the sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Divide the cheesy cauliflower among serving plates and top each portion with a dollop of sour cream.
Garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
