Healthy Snacking: Roasted Cauliflower "Popcorn"

My stress level is a little high at work this time of year (end of year reports) and snack cravings are insane. Especially for carbs when I get home from work! 

We've also had lots of "social" events at work and on the weekends that involve food. I've been trying to curb the cravings and temptations with reminding myself of my healthy options.  

This week's feature: Roasted Cauliflower "Popcorn"

Ingredients:
1 head of cauliflower
1/4 cup olive oil (I use a garlic infused one from Trader Joe's) 
Salt to taste

Optional toppings:
Popcorn seasoning: such as "white cheddar" or "kettle corn"
Pepper
Nutritional yeast (gives it a cheesy flavor)  
Garlic powder


Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees
2. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.  3. Chopped and break up the cauliflower florets into bite size pieces.
4. In a bowl or directly on the baking sheet (my lazy way) toss the cauliflower with the olive oil and salt. 5. Add your desired optional toppings. My favorite is a little nutritional yeast, white cheddar flavored popcorn seasoning, and garlic if I'm out of my garlic infused olive oil!
6. Bake at 400 degrees for 45-60 minutes. Turn at least once. You want them very brown!! 
**If you are feeling rushed you can crank the oven up to 475 and bake for 15-20 minutes just keep an eye on them and turn often!
