Slow-Cooker Whole Cauliflower image

A delicious and easy recipe from cooktopstove.com. Can be either a side dish or a vegetarian main course. I'd advise leaving out the salt; the Parmesan is plenty salty already!

Categories     Cauliflower

Time 5h10m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 large cauliflower
4 garlic cloves, minced
4 tablespoons butter, melted
1 tablespoon sage, finely chopped
1 lemon, juiced and zested
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
3/4 cup parmesan cheese (the powdered kind)
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped

Steps:

  • If cauliflower has greens still attached to the bottom, leave them on. Place whole cauliflower in the slow cooker.
  • In a small bowl, mix together garlic, butter, sage and lemon zest. Pour butter mixture over cauliflower. Use your fingers to rub into the surface.
  • Evenly sprinkle with the salt and pepper, followed by the powdered Parmesan cheese.
  • Pour the lemon juice around the cauliflower in the slow cooker (not on top of the cauliflower).
  • Cook on low for 5 hours, or on high for 3 hours, 30 minutes.
  • Gently remove the cauliflower from the slow cooker. Add parsley to the slow cooker and mix with the liquid from cooking.
  • Slice the cauliflower and pour the sauce (cooking liquid with parsley) over the top. Serve with grilled chicken or fish, or let it stand alone and shine.

This recipe is a staple in my kitchen. It's so easy to make and always turns out delicious. I love that I can throw everything in the slow cooker and forget about it until dinnertime.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cauliflower turned out really tough. Maybe I should have cooked it for less time.

Delicious! The cauliflower was perfectly cooked and the sauce was creamy and flavorful. I will definitely be making this again.

This recipe was a total fail. The cauliflower was mushy and the sauce was watery. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

Not bad, but not great either. The cauliflower was a bit overcooked and the cheese sauce was too thick. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The roasted cauliflower is a great side dish for any occasion.

This recipe is a lifesaver for busy weeknights. I simply throw everything in the slow cooker in the morning and dinner is ready when I get home. The cauliflower always comes out perfectly cooked and the sauce is delicious.

Meh. The cauliflower was bland and the breadcrumb topping was soggy. Will not be making this again.

So easy and delicious! I'm not usually a fan of cauliflower, but this recipe changed my mind. The slow cooker did all the work and the result was a flavorful and impressive dish. Highly recommend!

This recipe was a hit with my family! The cauliflower turned out perfectly tender and flavorful. I especially loved the crispy breadcrumb topping. Will definitely be making this again.
