Ingredients
-
½ cup almonds
-
5 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf parsley, divided, plus more for garnish
-
¼ cup packed fresh basil, plus more for garnish
-
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives, plus more for garnish
-
Zest & juice of 1 lemon
-
5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
-
1 teaspoon salt, divided
-
2 large heads cauliflower
-
2 teaspoons smoked paprika
-
1 teaspoon garlic powder
-
2 medium shallots, minced
-
1 clove garlic, minced
-
2 (15 ounce) cans no-salt-added butter beans, rinsed
-
½ cup water
-
¼ teaspoon ground pepper
-
2 teaspoons sherry vinegar
Directions
-
Preheat grill to medium.
-
Pulse almonds, 4 tablespoons parsley, basil, chives, lemon zest and juice, 2 tablespoons oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a food processor until chopped.
-
Place cauliflower heads on a cutting board, stem-side down. Using a large chef's knife, cut two 1/2-inch-thick slices from the center of each head to make 4 "steaks." (Reserve the remaining cauliflower for another use.) Brush the steaks with 2 tablespoons oil. Combine paprika, garlic powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Sprinkle the mixture on both sides of the steaks.
-
Grill the steaks, turning once, until tender and nicely charred, 12 to 14 minutes total.
-
Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add shallots and garlic and cook until the shallots start to soften, about 1 minute. Add beans, water, pepper and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until hot, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in vinegar and the remaining 1 tablespoon parsley.
-
Serve the cauliflower steaks over the beans, topped with the pesto and more herbs, if desired.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.
* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
