Welcome to my blog where I'm trying to consolidate as many recipes for the 17 day diet as I can. I've been on the diet for 17 days and I love a lot of the recipes that are out there, mainly on the doctors tv show website. The problem is these recipes aren't arranged very well. You can search for something specific, but not for a general term like vegetables or breakfast. If you try a recipe, I would love for you to comment. I've tried a lot of these, but not all. I hope this helps any of you who are trying out this diet - I love it!

Cauliflower Popcorn

Print Friendly and PDF
Cauliflower Popcorn
Cycle 1

  • 1 head cauliflower or 1 head equal amount of pre-cut commercially prepped cauliflower
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil (can use less)
  • 1 teaspoon salt, to taste (can also use other herbs and seasonings)

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

Trim the head of cauliflower, discarding the core and thick stems; cut florets into pieces about the size of ping-pong balls.  In a large bowl, combine the olive oil and salt, whisk, then add the cauliflower pieces and toss thoroughly.

Line a baking sheet with parchment for easy cleanup (you can skip that, if you don’t have any) then spread the cauliflower pieces on the sheet and roast for 1 hour, turning 3 or 4 times, until most of each piece has turned golden brown.  The browner the cauliflower pieces turn, the more caramelization occurs and the sweeter they’ll taste.

Serve immediately and enjoy!
