foodie fridays: pan roasted cauliflower steaks
Embark on a culinary journey with pan-roasted cauliflower steaks, a flavorful vegetarian dish bursting with wholesome goodness and rich, savory flavors.
Resolutions.
With the new year among us, the “R” word has been in steady use. Everyone is looking to improve or change. Add or subtract. Lose or gain. Where do I begin? How do I even get started? Will I ever finish? If you ask me it can be a little overwhelming at times.
Since I am still working on my resolution list, I thought it would be fun to check out what the top resolutions are for 2012. Any guesses as to what they are?
Drum roll…
#1 – Save money
#2 – Lose weight or stay fit
#3 – Fall in love
#4 – Spend more time with family
Surprised?
To tell you the truth, I was a little surprised to see saving money as the number one resolution. I figured losing weight and staying fit would be always number one…interesting. But it was nice to see spending time with family up there in the ranks! Good job, America.
Anyways, after reading through the top resolutions, I started thinking. Rather than looking at each resolution as one task to complete, why not try to encompass them all? Why don’t we come out swinging in 2012?
Okay, want to know the secret to accomplishing all four resolutions?”
It’s rather simple {insert: jazz hands}.
Make these cauliflower steaks.
What? Cauliflower? That’s weird, and random. I know, I know, but hear me out for a second. First and foremost, this recipe will save you money. Hello, vegetables are super cheap. One head of cauliflower is around $2 and can feed up to four people. If my math is right, that’s 50 cents a person! Holy savings!
Second, this recipe is chock-full of all sorts of heart-healthy vegetables. From tomatoes to olives to cauliflower, it will keep those skinny jeans from feeling painted on.
Third, if you’re single looking to mingle, make this dish. Invite your crush over for dinner and show off your culinary skills. Trust me they will fall in love with you and the flavor.
And lastly, spending hours in the kitchen slaving away over a huge meal can be tiresome. This cauliflower dish will have you in and out of the kitchen in less than 30 minutes! Which means more time with the ones you love.
Well, do I have you convinced?
Thought so.
Conclusion: Elevate your dining experience with pan-roasted cauliflower steaks, offering a satisfying and nutritious option for vegetarians and meat-lovers alike.

LOVE this. I use cauliflower as “mashed potatoes.” They're so versatile and dellllish.
i love this! this will definitely help you stay healthy and save money! A meal I love!
This seriously blew my mind. I’m a health conscious student on a budget in the stress of finals week. This was so easy, fast and tasted amazing! I used maybe a tea spoon of canola oil, and the cauliflower tasked like it was saturated with butter!! Amazing. THANK YOU!
Just had this for my supper – topped with tinned cherry tomatoes sauteed with onions and garlic in olive oil, and served with whizzed up cauli, red cabbage, red onion, parsley and garlic, dressed with olive oil and lemon juice. I am SO full!
Yay!! I am so glad you enjoyed the recipe!
