Butter Roasted Cauliflower Cheese
This dish can be a side dish or a meal on its own. The combination of butter and olive oil caramelizes the florets and they taste divine.
I use a large cauliflower head; you get at least 4 steaks. Recipe below is the for one full cauliflower, macronutrient breakdown assumes that the cauliflower has been split into four, and is for one steak.
