Favorite Snack

I watched Dr. Oz one day while cooking dinner, and discovered this snack, which I have now had several times.  It it called "popcorn cauliflower."   Only recently have I been tuning in to Dr. Oz from time to time.  He has lots of good tips on health and food and eating.   Prior to this recipe, I would definitely not have said that I was a big fan of cauliflower!

But honestly, cooked this way, now I am!   You remove the florets from the stem and break them into small pieces, actually about the size of popcorn.  Toss in a bowl with a little olive oil, or spray oil.  Add some salt and pepper and roast in the oven until brown.  One could add a bit of parmesan cheese to 'fancy it up' a bit.  It does not really get crunchy, as the name might imply,  but it is very tasty indeed.

Just wanted to share this little snack.  Now, every week when I go grocery shopping,  I buy a head of cauliflower to enjoy!
