→ Flavor Boosters & Cheeses
04 -
1/2 cup of mozzarella, shredded
05 -
1/2 cup of Parmesan, grated
06 -
1 tsp of garlic powder
07 -
1 tsp of sweet paprika
08 -
Fresh parsley, chopped (sprinkle over before serving)
# Instructions:
01 -
Set your oven to 356°F (180°C) and let it warm up.
02 -
Pluck off the leaves and slice the cauliflower into pieces about an inch thick—they'll look like flat 'steaks.'
03 -
Cover a baking tray with parchment. Spread out the cauliflower steaks on it, drizzle olive oil on the pieces, and season with the paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
04 -
Dust Parmesan cheese over each steak evenly. Pop everything into your heated oven and let it cook for 20 minutes.
05 -
Top with mozzarella, then stick it back in the oven for another 10 minutes—or until the cheese bubbles and turns golden.
06 -
Spread chopped parsley on top and bring it to the table while it's warm.
# Notes:
01 -
You can enjoy these cauliflower steaks as a standalone meal or alongside your favorite protein.
02 -
Swap out the cheeses for some dairy-free options or use nutritional yeast if you'd like a plant-based twist.
03 -
Eat them fresh while they're hot—it’s when the cheese is at its gooiest, and the edges are crispy!
