Preheat oven to 450°F. Toss together cauliflower, onion, garlic, oil, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper over a foil-lined large rimmed baking sheet. Roast 25 to 30 minutes or until browned and tender.
Meanwhile, melt butter in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add flour, stirring constantly 1 minute. Gradually whisk in half-and-half and broth; bring to a simmer, and cook 3 to 5 minutes or until thickened, stirring.
