Cauliflower Steaks
Chimmichurri sauce
Preheat oven to 400F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Carefully remove leaves from cauliflower and slice lengthwise into two pieces. Then slice into 1inch “steaks”, ensuring each has stem at the bottom to keep heads in tact.
Mix together cumin, red pepper flakes, salt/pepper and olive oil in a small bowl. Brush onto each side of the cauliflower steaks.
Spray each side with oil.
Bake for 20 minutes, carefully flip each steak over and sprinkle on nutritional yeast. Then bake for another 20 minutes.
Chimichurri sauce: add all ingredients except water to a food processor and blend until completely smooth. Add water to thin as needed.
Drizzle sauce on top of cauliflower steaks and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve on it’s own or atop a bed of quinoa or rice.
