We’ll, here is something that is sure to spice up your plate. This is a Weight Watchers Recipe that was passed along to me by my, once again fabulous, cousin. It’s delicious!

Cauliflower Poppers

• 1 head cauliflower
• 1/2 teaspoon ground curry (*recipe originally calls for Cumin, I’m not such a fan. The curry works great!)
• 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• Cooking spray (optional)

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400*
2. Clean and cut cauliflower into little pieces
3. In a ziplock bag, add all spices and toss the cut cauliflower in.
4. Shake, shake, shake.
5. Spay a cookie sheet with olive oil and spread cauliflower onto it. ** I actually have omitted this before and used parchment paper on a cookie sheet sans oil.
6. Bake 10 minutes then toss/flip
7. Bake another 10 minutes or until the cauliflower is to your liking.

* The cauliflower gets crispy and caramelized all at the same time! It’s delicious with a little kick!

Here is the scoop on 1/5th of the recipe:

Here is how you turn your Artichoke Heart into a pita replacement!

1. Wash your Artichoke Heart
2. Cut the base stem off and the pointy tips on all the leaves. This is best done with scissors.
3. Place your Artichoke In a boiling pot of water, and let it boil for 30 – 40 minutes.
4. Remove and cool.
5. Serve along side any dip!
6. Pick a leaf off! Use the bottom of the leave (the meat) to scoop the dip and then with your teeth you scrap the leaf so that you get the meat from the plant and a little dip too!

* You can also scoop out the top few leaves and put your dip inside the middle of the Artichoke for a fancied up version!

P.S- The ‘heart’ is the BEST part. it’s hidden under all the leaves at the very bottom of the plant! YUMM!

Now, here is the scoop on the Artichoke:

1. 25 calories in a medium artichoke with no fat or cholesterol!
2. 16 essential nutrients!
3. 12% recommended daily Intake (RDI) of Fiber
4. 10% RDI of Folate
5. 10% RDI Vitamin C
6. Not to mention Iron, potassium, magnesium and calcium to name a few!
7. All these vitamins and minerals can help reduce the risk of certain types of heart disease, cancers and birth defects.
