Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Cut the cauliflower head into bite-sized florets and place them in a large mixing bowl.
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, thyme, rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
Pour the oil and spice mixture over the cauliflower florets, ensuring each piece is evenly coated.
Spread the coated cauliflower florets in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender and golden brown, flipping halfway through cooking time for even roasting.
Remove the cauliflower from the oven and drizzle with fresh lemon juice.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
Serve hot as a side dish or a healthy snack.
