Cauliflower Steaks
Delicious and nutritious! Cauliflower is a cruciferous vegetable that is naturally high in fiber and B vitamins. It has many health benefits, such as aiding digestion and circulation.
- 1 head of cauliflower
- 1-2 tbsp avocado oil or melted ghee, or butter
- 3 clove garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp lemon juice (about half a lemon)
- salt and pepper to taste
Preheat oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the cauliflower in large slices and lay on the sheet slightly apart from each other.
Brush all sides with ghee and sprinkle the tops with garlic, lemon juice, salt and pepper.
Bake for 25 minutes and check for doneness. For more tender cauliflower you may need to bake for another 5 minutes. It's done when you can stick a fork in it.
