Chef, that's my second favorite way to eat rainbow peppers! Raw being my first choice. :) Vixen loves them, too!

For a snack, especially on "movie night"

Chop up a cauliflower into little florets:

Spread them out on a cookie sheet

Lightly brush them with olive oil

Broil at 375 for about an hour or until they start to caramelize. (I go till they look really dark)

Then eat like popcorn.

Corn Salad

This is also "to taste" and it's better the second day.

2 Cans White Shoepeg Corn

2 (or more) chopped tomatoes

1/4 (or more) chopped green onions

1 Tbsp Mayonnaise

Salt

Pepper (I add a lot of pepper to this salad)

I've won some local contests with this recipe, unbelievably.
