easy vegan cauliflower fried rice

easy vegan cauliflower fried rice
The same man who will pick out every tiny piece of kale in any dish I have ever served him was downing bowl after bowl of this cauliflower fried rice. So, picky husband approved and I’m assuming, 3-year-old toddler approved.
Besides being a nutrient-dense, flavor packed meal, the entire dish comes together in less than 30 minutes. I know this cauliflower fried rice will be a regular rotation in our house.

Easy Vegan Cauliflower Fried Rice! Ready in less than 20 minutes, low-calorie, low-fat, low-carb and DELICIOUS! Vegan and Gluten-Free.
Ingredients
  • 1 lb. firm tofu, [url:1]pressed[/url] and drained
  • 1 medium-sized head of cauliflower
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil, divided
  • 1 tablespoon minced ginger
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 carrots, diced (about 1 cup)
  • 1/2 cup peas, thawed if frozen
  • 1/4 cup thinly sliced green onions
  • 3 tablespoons cashews
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce (or Tamari for gluten-free version)
  • sesame seeds, for garnish
Instructions
  1. Press and drain the tofu (either by wrapping the tofu in paper towels and placing under a heavy object, or by using a [url:2]tofu press[/url])
  2. Lightly crumble the tofu in a large bowl and set aside.
  3. Cut the cauliflower into florets, discarding the tough inner core. Working in batches if needed, pulse the cauliflower in a food processor until it breaks down into rice-sized pieces. You should have 5 to 6 cups of cauliflower "rice."
  4. Set aside.
  5. In a large wok, heat the sesame oil over medium heat. Add the ginger and garlic and lightly stir fry for 30 seconds - 1 minute until just golden brown and fragrant. Add in the crumbled tofu and stir-fry for 5 minutes, stirring often, until tofu is golden in color and cooked through.
  6. Remove tofu from wok and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of sesame oil.
  7. Add in the carrots and sauté until tender, about 2 minutes. Stir the peas, and cauliflower "rice" into the wok, mixing the ingredients thoroughly.
  8. Cook, stirring often, until the cauliflower is tender, 5 to 8 minutes. Stir in the cooked tofu, green onions, cashews and soy sauce.
  9. Garnish with sesame seeds, if desired.

White Chicken Enchiladas

White Chicken Enchiladas White Chicken Enchiladas are ALL the rage, and for good reason. The flavor is incredible. Bold flavor but not spicy. Creamy comfort food, yet not too rich. These are a winner in all categories and will satisfy even the pickiest eater. These are not your typical enchiladas. Traditionally, enchiladas are made with corn tortillas and a red or green sauce. These are a “whole other thing”….and so so good. I have a big family and we love to have big Fiesta Night dinners. Tacos, taquitos, nachos, and of course these enchiladas are a must. There are never any leftovers. I like to put these on the Menu for Monday because I can cook the chicken in the slow cooker on Sunday and assemble everything and stick the pan in the fridge. Then when we get home Monday from school, activities, appointments, and general chaos that comes with the beginning of the week, I can pop these in the oven and know that we will all be looking forward to a delicious dinner. Welcome, Pin...

CHEESY CAULIFLOWER BREADSTICKS – KETO AND GLUTEN FREE Using the same idea as pizza crust, it’s easy to make a low carb cheesy cauliflower breadsticks recipe instead. Simply leave out the pizza sauce! I’m always amazed by all the fantastic things you can do with cauliflower. It’s a staple ingredient on low carb and goes way beyond a potato substitute. When I got started on this way of life, I discovered that cauliflower can make a fantastic pizza crust. As the years went on, I also experimented with using it in chocolate pudding and pie crust. I’ve also seen others sneak this versatile vegetable into pumpkin pie because it’s a terrific thickening agent. Because of this property, it’s often used to thicken soups as well. But, I’ve gone back to the basic pizza crust recipe to make a low carb cheesy cauliflower breadsticks recipe. And, you don’t have to limit yourself with the standard rectangular sticks. After rolling out the “dough” mixture, I figured I’d experiment with different shapes...
