Blackened Cauliflower Steaks with Caramelized Onions

Tonight we were in the mood for something on the lighter side.  I considered my other roasted cauliflower recipe, but wanted a bit of a different flavor profile, and I like the idea of a more steak-like presentation.  I had a great blackened rub in the spice cabinet, so decided to go with a basic pan-seared cauliflower steak with some caramelized onions.  I used butter in the skillet to sear the cauliflower since I figured that the whole thing was already pretty economical on the calories, so a butter flavor bomb with the blackened seasoning would be totally fine.  It was really good!

Date Night Dinner: Spicy Roasted Cauliflower

Roasted Cauliflower

One of my newest food obsessions this spring is cauliflower.  On a recent visit to The Olive Branch, I had their roasted cauliflower for an appetizer and it could’ve easily been an entreé in and of itself!  I’ve been looking for good meat substitutes that have enough density to make me feel like I’m eating something hearty and cauliflower, especially when roasted with some spices definitely makes the cut.  It’s like a vegetable steak!
