This recipe makes 4 servings
Ingredients:
  • • 1 head cauliflower, cut into 1-inch thick slices
  • • ¼ cup olive oil
  • • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • • Salt (optional)
  • • ½ cup lower sugar barbecue sauce (like Stubb’s Original)
Preparation:

Brush both sides of each slice of cauliflower with olive oil and season with a sprinkle of black pepper and optional salt. Place cauliflower slices on heated grill and cook for about 5 minutes per side.

Coat each side with barbecue sauce and place back on grill for about 3 to 5 more minutes per side. (Alternatively, you can roast your cauliflower “steaks” at 400˚ for about 30 minutes, flipping them over about halfway through.)
