Vegan Garlic and "Cheese" Cauliflower Head

Need a new (easy) recipe for that head of cauliflower sitting in your fridge? 

Instead of cutting into florets, try steaming the whole head! It is SO much easier! Albeit, it does take a bit longer to cook, but then you just have extra time to play with your kids or get some extra housework done. Or, let's get real, watch TV ;)


Place the whole head of cauliflower in a pot with an inch to an inch and a half of water in the bottom. Cover it and simmer it over medium-low heat for 20-25 minutes. 


After the time is up, check it by prodding it with a fork. If the fork goes in easily, then it is done. If not, let it cook for 5 more minutes and check it again. 

Cooking time really depends on the size of the head. 


After it's done cooking, stick a fork in each side to lift it out of the pot. Then set it on your serving plate. 


While it's still hot, sprinkle it with garlic salt and plenty of nutritional yeast. 


You can clean of the plate to serve it if you like, but I kind of like the sprinkles on the plate :)


Cut off a portion for each person, or just go ahead and DIG IN! 

Enjoy!
