One Pan Chicken Parmesan Cauliflower Steaks

 The best way to create a complete low carb dinner that’s delicious and nutritious.

These really are my favorite dish ever because I don’t need to dirty a ton of pots and pans to make a complete meal, including my protein and vegetable all in one pan. I absolutely love the combination of flavors and you can use any sauce you prefer, pesto, marinara, roasted peppers or salsa.
