For a vegan option, omit the Havarti cheese or substitute with a vegan cheese alternative. Serve these Cauliflower Steaks with a side of quinoa or couscous for a complete and satisfying meal. Experiment with different cheeses! Gruyere, fontina, or even a sharp cheddar would be delicious. Add a sprinkle of fresh herbs like thyme or parsley after broiling for an extra touch of flavor.

Follow The Directions
01
StepCarefully slice the cauliflower into 3 or 4 "steaks" about 1-inch thick. Remove the core and any loose leaves. Reserve the florets that break off during slicing. (Prep time: 5 minutes)
02
StepHeat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sear the cauliflower steaks until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Add the reserved florets and water to the skillet. Cover and steam until the cauliflower is tender. (Cook time: 15-20 minutes)
03
StepWhile the cauliflower steams, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a separate skillet over medium heat. Sauté the chopped onion until fragrant and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté until softened and lightly browned, about 8-10 minutes. (Prep time: 2 minutes. Cook time: 13-15 minutes)
04
StepPreheat your oven's broiler and position the rack about 6 inches from the heat source. (Prep time: 2 minutes)
05
StepArrange the steamed cauliflower steaks and florets on a baking sheet. Top with the sautéed onion-mushroom mixture, followed by slices of Havarti cheese. (Prep time: 3 minutes)
06
StepBroil in the preheated oven until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly golden brown, about 2-3 minutes. Watch carefully to prevent burning! (Cook time: 2-3 minutes)
