Equipment

  • baking sheet

Ingredients
  

  • 1 head cauliflower rinsed and cut vertically into about 4 slices
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil extra virgin
  • kosher salt as needed
  • black pepper as needed
  • 2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 cup heirloom tomato sauce
  • 1 cup freshly grated parmesan or mozzarella cheese

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 425 F degrees.
  • Rinse and pat dry the cauliflower and cut vertically into 4 slices. If some of it breaks into florets, that's ok.
  • Season generously with salt, pepper and the Italian seasoning. Drizzle with olive oil.
  • Roast for 15 minutes. Then flip the cauliflower steaks over with a spatula. Season a bit more and add a touch of olive oil if needed.
  • Place back in the oven for another 15 minutes. Then remove from the oven and add the marinara and the cheese on top.
  • Broil for 2 minutes or until the cheese is melted. Serve immediately! Enjoy!

Notes

Notes:
The cauliflower can be ate the next day but it will lose some of the texture. However it is still very delicious. :) 
Store any leftovers into an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat in the microwave for about 60 seconds.
