Directions:

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.

Wash fresh produce first.

Core the cauliflower and cut into small pieces.

Season with a dash of salt and pepper. Drizzle with olive oil.

Toss together and arrange evenly on a baking sheet.

Roast twenty-five minutes, or until tender and browned.

While cauliflower roasts, heat a small pot of water to boiling.

Peel one shallot and thinly slice. Dice both garlic cloves.

Remove kale stems and chop leaves.

Add eggs to the pot of boiling water. Turn off the burner and cover.

Cook ten to twelve minutes, or six to seven for soft boiled eggs.

Rinse eggs under cold water; set aside until cool enough to peel.

As the eggs cook, prepare the kale.

Heat two tablespoons of olive oil in a medium-sized pan. Once hot, add shallot and garlic.

Cook two minutes, or until soft and fragrant.

Add kale and a splash of water, stir together.

Sprinkle with lemon-pepper seasoning. Sauté four to five minutes, stirring occasionally until kale has wilted and water has absorbed.

Turn off heat.

Add roasted cauliflower and stir to combine.

Distribute kale and cauliflower between two bowls, add sliced eggs, and top with Parmesan cheese.

Enjoy!
