Cauliflower steaks are becoming popular. They're easy to prepare and make a great vegetarian dinner. For this easy dinner, just cut a head of cauliflower into 1-inch steaks, add a prepared pesto sauce and let the oven do the rest.
Cannellini beans, cherry tomatoes and arugula make a simple salad side dish. Fresh arugula adds a peppery finish to the salad.
Helpful Hints:
_ Any type of salad greens can be used instead of the arugula.
_ Great Northern beans can be used instead of cannellini beans.
Countdown:
_ Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
_ Prepare the cauliflower and place in the oven.
_ While cauliflower roasts, make the salad.
