Beef and Cauliflower Fried Rice Nutrient Rich Bowl

Servings: 4 People
Course: Main Course

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon kosher or sea salt divided
  • 1 medium head cauliflower
  • 2 eggs beaten
  • 2 teaspoons canola oil divided
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
  • 1 bunch scallions sliced
  • 1 cup frozen pea and carrot blend
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce

Method
 

  1. Cut the cauliflower into small pieces and throw away the core. Pulse the pieces in a food processor 3 to 4 times until they are about the size of rice.
  2. Cook the ground beef in a large pan over medium high heat for about 7 minutes until browned and no pink remains. Stir in pepper and 1 teaspoon of salt. Move to a clean plate and keep warm.
  3. In a large nonstick pan, add 1/2 teaspoon canola oil. Cook the eggs over medium high heat, stirring the whole time, for 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the remaining salt and set aside with the beef.
  4. Using the same pan, wipe it out if needed. Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons canola oil over medium high heat. Add the cauliflower and cook for 4 minutes, stirring often. Add garlic, ginger, and the white parts of the green onions and cook 2 more minutes while stirring. Add frozen vegetables, sesame oil, and soy sauce and cook for another 2 minutes, stirring.
  5. Mix the beef and eggs into the cauliflower mixture. Top with the green parts of the green onions and serve.
