How to Prepare Cauliflower Parmesan [Vegan]
To Make the Parmesan:
- Combine all ingredients in a food processor and process until the mixture has the texture of grated Parmesan cheese. Do not over-process or you will have Parmesan butter.
To Make the Cauliflower:
- Turn the oven on to broil and heat to 425°F.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
- Cut the cauliflower heads in half through the stem, then trim each half so you have a cutlet 1-1 1/2 inches thick.
- Place the cauliflower cutlets in a large skillet and add the 1/2 cup water to the pan. Cook the cutlets for 5 minutes over medium heat, until almost tender. Season with sea salt and black pepper to taste and place the cutlets on a nonstick baking sheet or one lined with parchment paper.
- Cook the pasta in the boiling water according to package instructions.
- Add the garlic, basil, and oregano to a blender and puree for 30 seconds. Drizzle the garlic mixture evenly over the cooked cauliflower cutlets and sprinkle vegan Parmesan on top.
- Bake the cutlets for 8–10 minutes, until the cutlets are lightly browned.
- To serve, divide the cooked linguine among four plates and top with the pasta sauce. Place a cauliflower cutlet on top of the pasta sauce for each plate.

This recipe doesn’t seem complete at all to me- what is the breaking shown in the picture- it’s not just the spices
Hi, Debie! That’s the toasted sesame seeds, cashews, and nutritional yeast. :)
This is a must make !
sorry to brake it to you if it\’s vegan it\’s not anything Parmesan.
there is such a thing called as DOP (Protected Designation of Origin)
in the US you can call a cheese Parmesan if it\’s similar to the genuine Parmigiano-Reggiano from Parma, in the EU you can\’t.
but you definitely can\’t call it Parmesan if it isn\’t even cheese.
i\’m still going to try it, it looks delicious
