Notes

For best results, choose a large head of cauliflower for thicker steaks.
Feel free to experiment with different herbs in the chimichurri, such as adding oregano or cilantro for a unique flavor.
This recipe is also great for meal prep. Simply roast the cauliflower steaks ahead of time and store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
