Good evening buddies!

This is probably one of my favorite meals...cauliflower steaks with my homemade Sriracha sauce, and a nice glass of Pinot Grigio!🌻

Have a wonderful evening!

Cauli:
Leave a little stem on so steaks will stay together when cutting
Brush olive oil on bother sides, and then salt and pepper
Brown both sides on stove top and transfer to foil lined baking sheet. Bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes

Sriracha sauce :
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tsp Sriracha
1 tsp minced garlic
1 tsp lemon or lime juice
Sprinkle of red pepper flakes
Salt and pepper to taste

Use for dipping cauliflower or spread on top

Sounds great. Too bad I didn't have this recipe last night.

It's really good, and a go-to at our house for a healthy side :)

I just recently tried cauliflower " fried rice"...it was truly amazing! Although I could eat it just as you posted it...YUM!

Still haven't mastered the 'steak' but simply roasted in little florets is just as good :)

@iulani,I haven't tried cauliflower rice yet. I need to find a recipe for the fried rice :) I have used it for pizza crust and it was delicious.

@schmetterlinge34, I always end up with some roasted florets when I make the steaks. Sometimes the cauliflower doesn't want to stay together on the end pieces

I love Sriracha sauce but it spikes my glucose so I have been avoiding it. Wonder if possibly it is just the brand I am using? would anyone know per chance?

btw I love to do cabbage steaks this way too but I only eat 1/2 a cup of cabbage at a meal because I am so of a carb sensitive type 2 diabetic.

My husband has type 2, and neither the cauliflower or the Sriracha cause a spike in his BS

If you hand grate or my vita mix worked well... or a food processor...the cali into rice sized pieces, just use as you would regular rice. I sauteed it in sesame oil for 5 min, added fresh peas, green onion and salt and pepper. Cooked meat and egg can be added as well. I found the basic recipe online...good luck! It was excellent!

That sounds wonderful! I'm going to have to give it a try :D

I think I might steal your recipe for the dip! I'm a little burned out on cauliflower. I ruined my taste buds with a jacked up batch of coconut cauliflower curry that turned out God awful. But, I'm thinking some roasted zucchini sticks would go great with the dip.

I think roasted zucchini would go great with that dip, too. It's definitely in the spicy side
