Cauliflower Rice & Our Stir Fry

I made mashed cauliflower for Thanksgiving and was really unimpressed. Other people said they liked it, but I'm not sure if they were sincere or just being polite. See, I'm a homemade chunky mashed potato kind of girl, and the texture of mashed cauliflower was
like bad boxed mashed potatoes. ICK!!!

I decided to try the cauliflower route once again tonight (and I don't even like plain cauliflower). The "rice" was a definite winner!! YEA! The recipe I used was once again from The Food Lovers Primal Palate (cookbook).

Ingredients:

• 1/2 head of cauliflower (this makes a lot)

• 1/2 of a vidalia onion, chopped
• 1 clove of garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  
  
• salt and pepper to taste
  
  

(NOTE: I doubled everything to have enough for our family. There was not much left!)

After washing the cauliflower and removing from big stem thing ;-) place florets in a food chopper (or processor, or grate it-but that might take you all day!)

Saute the garlic and onion in the coconut oil for a few minutes. Add the cauliflower and sauté about 5 more minutes.

Ground Chicken Stir-Fry:

Brown some ground chicken (or turkey)

Add in a bunch of veggies (I used an onion, a

green pepper, 3 squash, fresh mushrooms) Saute with some Italian seasoning until everything is tender enough for you.

Throw in some fresh tomatoes the last minute of cooking.

Serve on top of your Cauliflower RIce, WAH LA, Dinner!
