Grilled Cauliflower Steaks with Grapefruit, Watercress, and Pecans

Sam Kass (former White House Chef) wants to take the stress out of healthy eating. The key is to not worry so much about make the "right" choice. Instead, just do as the title of his new cookbook says: Eat a Little Better.
(Serves 4)

1/4 cup grapeseed or veg. oil, plus more for the grill (or broiler*)
2 small heads of cauliflower, bottoms trimmed flat
Coarse* kosher salt
2 large ruby red* grapefruits
1 T. white balsamic or white wine vinegar
1 large bunch (6 oz.) watercress or arugula, thick stems trimmed
1/2 cup pecans, toasted, crumbled, if large

Preheat a gas or charcoal grill to high heat. Pour some oil on a paper towel and rub on the grill grates. Cut each cauliflower head vertically into three "steaks", making sure each piece includes some of the stem so the pieces hold together. Rub with 2 T. oil and season with salt. Grill over direct heat until crisp-tender and charred on both sides, 6-8 min. per side. Meanwhile, peel and segment grapefruit with a knife. To make the dressing, squeeze the leftover juice from the grapefruit pith into a smaller bowl, whisk together with the remaining oil and season with salt. In a large bowl, gently toss watercress with some of the grapefruit dressing. Drizzle remaining dressing onto cauliflower steaks, sprinkle with pecans, then top with grapefruit segments and watercress.

Spread JOY around today!!
