Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 C).
Trim the brussels sprouts and cut larger brussels sprouts in half. Cut the cauliflower into florets a little bigger than the brussels sprouts. Add them to a large bowl as you prep them.
In a small bowl, combine the onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, black pepper, and salt. Toss the vegetables to cover them with spices.
Spread the vegetables in a single layer on a baking tray and place them in the center rack of the oven. Bake for 15 minutes, then toss the vegetables. Continue roasting them for another 5-10 minutes until they are crispy outside and tender in the middle.
Transfer roasted veggies to a heated bowl to keep them warmer for longer. Cover with a light cloth or paper towel so they stay warm, but don't continue steaming.

Preheat the air fryer to 375 degrees, then add the cauliflower and sprouts in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
Cook them for 10 minutes, tossing the veggies after 5 minutes.
Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need two batches.

Preheat the oven to 450 F.
Mix the spices in a small bowl and set aside.
Arrange the veggies in a single layer on a lined baking sheet. Roast for 15 minutes.
Remove the baking tray from the oven, then sprinkle with half the spices. Flip the veggies over, adding the rest of the spices.
Return to the oven and continue roasting for another 5-10 minutes.

If you use onion or garlic salt, consider cutting back or eliminating the ½ teaspoon salt listed in the ingredients.
Store leftovers in an airtight container or sealed bag in the refrigerator for 4 days or in the freezer for 3 months.
Reheat in a preheated oven or air fryer. Even when frozen, add them directly to high heat. Thawing can result in mushy veggies, and none of us like that.
