1 medium head cauliflower (about 2-1/2 pounds), cut into florets about 1-1/2″ wide. Make sure they are dry.
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
3/4-teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons freshly grated Pecorino Romano cheese
Handful fresh chopped parsley (optional)
Set oven rack in middle position and preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
In a large bowl, combine the cauliflower florets with the olive oil, salt and pepper and toss to coat evenly. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
Roast the cauliflower, stirring a few times to promote even browning, until tender and golden brown, 20-30 minutes. (Keep an eye on it; you want the florets to develop deep golden spots. If it looks like they’re getting too dark, turn the oven down to 425 degrees.) Sprinkle with grated cheese, then taste and add more salt and pepper if necessary. Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with parsley if desired. Serve hot or room temperature.

Preheat oven to 350°F. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the pasta, as well as a generous amount of salt, and stir. Cook the pasta until al dente, about 15 minutes. Drain the pasta and toss with olive oil. Set aside.
Pour the marinara sauce into a 8”x 8” baking dish and move around to form an even coat. In a mixing bowl, combine the filling ingredients and stir together well. Season together with salt and pepper.
Using a spoon, scoop a small amount of the filling and stuff into a pasta shell. Nestle the stuffed shell into the baking sheet and repeat with the remaining shells until the baking dish is filled. Top the baking dish with a sprinkle of parmesan. Tightly cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes.
Remove the foil and continue to bake for an additional 5 minutes or until the parmesan begins to bubble and lightly brown. Remove from the oven and allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
