Roasted Cauliflower Steaks with Pesto Caper Sauce
Updated August 2025
Roasting cauliflower steaks is a simple yet elegant way of serving this wonderful vegetable. Top them with our pesto caper sauce and be transported to the sunny Mediterranean!
The pesto caper sauce comes together quickly using our made-in-house Farm Boy™ Fresh Arugula Pesto thinned with Farm Boy™ Extra Virgin Olive Oil and lemon juice. It also makes a delicious salad dressing!
Tip: Try to find the largest head of cauliflower, as you’ll probably only get four good slices when you cut them into steaks.
