Recipe of the Week: Popcorn Cauliflower

Oh...this is another great one from Boot Camper Linda.  I made it last weekend.  I was a little nervous when it started to char, but THAT is what makes it taste superb.  Also, because it's called "popcorn", I expected it to be crunchy.  It is not. It's delicious to snack on or to have as a side dish.  Enjoy those veggies!
