Remove the tough bottom leaves from each cauliflower, taking care not to remove the stem. Place the cauliflower heads onto a cutting board with the stem side facing upwards; cut vertically on both sides of the stem to remove the loose florets. Cut each cauliflower vertically through the stem into 2 even "steaks", 1 to 1 1/2 inches thick; remove any remaining small leaves from each steak. Reserve remaining cauliflower for another use.

Place cauliflower steaks on the baking sheet. Brush both sides with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic salt.

5
Roast in the preheated oven until the edges are golden brown and the cauliflower is tender, 25 to 30 minutes, flipping halfway through. Place cauliflower on a serving platter and spoon chimichurri sauce over top.

Braised Collard Greens
My grandma Ollie-Belle made the best braised collard greens. This recipe is as close to hers as I could come. The pot-liquor is the key to great greens. Serve with fresh green onions and black-eyed peas with rice.
Slow Cooker Vegetable Soup
This vegetable soup recipe has a little extra something. I added homemade dumplings like my mom used to make for me. She made her soup with all the leftover vegetables in the refrigerator and then added dumplings. Good vegetarian soup without the meat.
Pear Tarte Tatin
This pear tarte Tatin is based on a classic upside-down French tart. The pears are caramelized in butter and sugar until golden and gooey, then covered with a pastry crust and baked in the oven.
