Roasted Cauliflower Steaks

The amazing cauliflower!

According to Dr. Mercola

“Cauliflower is a member of the cruciferous family of vegetables, often overshadowed by its green cousin broccoli. This is one vegetable that deserves a regular rotation in your diet, however, as it contains an impressive array of nutrients, including vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and other phytochemicals”.

• HOW TO SLICE CAULIFLOWER STEAKS

  Remove the outer leaves and trim the stem end. Use a sharp knife, cut through the center of the cauliflower to divide in half. Cut 1/2 inch slices, careful not to break into small pieces. 
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet pan with parchment paper. 
• Place the beaten eggs into a shallow bowl with enough room to dip the cauliflower steaks. On a large platter, pour the almond meal, season with salt and pepper. 
• Dip the cauliflower into the eggs, remove excess eggs on the sides, dredge in the almond meal. Evenly arrange the cauliflower on the baking pan, drizzle with oil. Bake for 20-30 minutes or until golden brown. 
• Plate the cauliflower with braised kale. Pour marinara sauce on top of the roasted cauliflower steaks. Option: Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
