Roasted Cauliflower Poppers with Parmesan Cheese

Yummy roasted cauliflower poppers, a nice healthy snack that you can serve up with your favorite dipping sauce. I scattered the seasoned florets evenly over a well coated pan and roasted for about 30 minutes until golden brown on each side. Roasting cauliflower in coconut oil brings out the caramelized richness and a sweet taste.
Add this guilt free dish to your menu and you will be the hit of the party. That's what's on my table tonight. Enjoy!
