Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Wash the cauliflower and pat it dry. Cut it into evenly-sized florets, removing as much of the stem as possible.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, ground turmeric, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a spice blend.
Add the cauliflower florets to the bowl and toss until the florets are evenly coated with the spice mixture.
Spread the coated cauliflower florets in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Ensure the florets are not overcrowded to allow even roasting.
Roast the cauliflower in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the edges are golden brown and tender when pierced with a fork.
Remove the cauliflower from the oven and let it cool for a minute or two. Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and flavor.
Serve immediately as a side dish or enjoy it as a healthy snack. You can also pair it with a dipping sauce of your choice!
