Summertime is full of festivals, theme parks, and beach days. These places tend to be HEAVY with fried food and meat. At FLK Method, we want to encourage a fruit and vegetable forward summer. Here are two yummy recipes we hope you try!

Grilled Cauliflower Steak

INGREDIENTS

• 2 heads cauliflower

• 1 teaspoon sea salt

• ¼ teaspoon black pepper

• ½ teaspoon garlic powder

• ½ teaspoon smoked paprika

• ¼ cup olive oil

• 2 teaspoons fresh parsley for garnish chopped

INSTRUCTIONS

• Heat a grill to medium or about 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

• Remove the outer leaves from each cauliflower head.

• Cut off the bottom stem end so that you create a flat base and can stand the cauliflower up on a cutting board.

• Resting the cauliflower on the stem cut the head into 2 very thick or 3 more moderate “steaks.”

• Reserve side or small pieces that break off in small bowl.

• Brush one side of each cauliflower steak with the olive oil.

• In a small bowl mix remaining ingredients except parsley.

• Sprinkle evenly over both sides of cauliflower.

• Place cauliflower carefully on grill, close cover and let cook for 5 to 6 minutes, until the bottom is beginning to char.

• Carefully flip the cauliflower, then re-cover the grill and cook 5 additional minutes, until the cauliflower is tender.

• Remove from the grill.Sprinkle with chopped parsley if desired.

• Serve immediately.

TIPS

If you would like to roast the cauliflower in the oven follow these instructions instead of placing on the grill.

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.

• Place seasoned cauliflower on baking sheet.

• Place baking sheet in oven for 10-15 minutes.

• Gently turn over each steak and roast 15-20 more minutes or until tender and golden.

Homemade Watermelon Ice Cream

INGREDIENTS

• 1/4 watermelon small, round

• 1/2 cup coconut milk

INSTRUCTIONS

Prepare the watermelon:

• Cut watermelon into small chunks, removing both the outer rind and black seeds (if there are any).

• Freeze the watermelon chunks for at least 4-5 hours, until fully frozen.

Making the ice cream:

• Add the watermelon chunks to a food processor with half of the coconut milk. Process the mixture until smooth, adding in the rest of the coconut milk, as needed, to help the process go more smoothly, and to make a creamier watermelon ice cream.

• Scoop the watermelon ice cream into bowls for serving immediately. If you want to make a more solid ice cream, store in the freezer for more time, as needed.
