Sunset Cauliflower Steak - A mouthwatering vegan dish featuring a thick slice of roasted cauliflower, seasoned with aromatic spices and served with a vibrant sunset-colored sauce.

Roasted cauliflower is having a moment, and I’m loving it! But Let’s not forget that it’s not a meal in itself and to keep a balanced approach when building a plate.So I like to pair it with this protein-packed sweet potato purée and tahini beetroot dressing for some healthy fats. This brings our plate to 30g of protein and will help keep us full and satisfied! This recipe is so delicious, I hope you give it a go!

  1. A wonderful recipe. The creamy sweet potato base pairs perfectly with the roasted cauliflower. The fresh, lemony beetroot sauce is a must-have. It’s the combination that makes it special.5 stars

    1. I am so happy you enjoyed it Sabine! Thank you so much for your beautiful review 💚

  2. We enjoyed the recipe overall. The 1/2 cup of nutritional yeast overwhelmed the sweet potato puree. I would recommend 1/4 cup at the most if you want the sweet potato flavor to come through. The spice mixture on the cauliflower was quite nice. It was a bit of a labor intensive dish to make.4 stars
