Ingredients
For the Cauliflower Steaks:
1 large head of cauliflower
1/4 cup olive oil (60 ml)
1 teaspoon salt
A pinch of black pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese (20 g)
For the Filling:
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 medium carrot, grated
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
A pinch of black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1 can tuna (80 g), drained (optional)
100 g shredded mozzarella cheese
Chopped parsley for garnish (optional)
Directions
Prepare the Cauliflower Steaks:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Remove the leaves from the cauliflower and trim the stem so the cauliflower can sit flat. Cut the cauliflower into thick steaks, approximately 3/4 inch thick. Depending on the size of the cauliflower, you should get about 2-4 steaks from one head.
Arrange the cauliflower steaks on a baking sheet.
Season and Bake the Cauliflower Steaks:
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.
Brush both sides of each cauliflower steak with the oil and spice mixture.
