    In provided tray, combine cauliflower, peppers, 2 tsp. olive oil, honey, Asian garlic, ginger & chile seasoning (to taste), and half the sesame seeds (reserve remaining for garnish). Massage oil, honey, and seasoning into vegetables.

    Bake uncovered in hot oven until cauliflower is golden-brown and tender, 12-15 minutes.

    While vegetables bake, continue recipe.
