Taco Cauliflower Rice

February 19, 2018

It’s hard for me to eat plain food. I LOVE seasonings. When it comes to rice, I never really enjoyed plain white rice. However, cauliflower rice has a nice mild flavor that makes rice SO much more enjoyable for me, personally. It just needs some butter and S&P too – sorry, not sorry! 😉

I decided to take this rice to the next level. With the help of a handful of seasonings, I was able to add tons of flavor, then I piled on some steak and toppings for burrito bowls!  After making this rice, I probably could have left the steak out of the bowl and been just fine! This rice reminded me so much of taco meat! So, for vegans out there, you could totally swap this recipe in for some psuedo-ground meat on your next tacos!

Quick Alfredo Sauce

December 14, 2017

Chicken Alfredo is my lactose-intolerant husband’s favorite dish. It’s pretty much always a goal of mine to give him something that reminds him of that…however, it always seems impossible to compare to the original. This recipe comes close despite it’s lack of dairy.

If you have the resources to get the products involved, it’s SO WORTH IT! However, if you do not have some of the ingredients, there are substitutes for a few ingredients that will still yield a delicious and creamy alfredo sauce.

After one taste of this, my husband said, “you’ll be making this often!”

  1. Over medium heat, sauté garlic in ghee for 30 seconds to a minute.
  2. Whisk in cream cheese until it melts completely.
  3. Add the remaining ingredients* and whisk together. Let the sauce simmer for 5-10 minutes to thicken. *I also add 1-2 TBSP of Italian seasoning - like Primal Palates Amore Seasoning (YUM!) to the sauce. It gives it a nice herby-kick!
  4. You can adjust the salt and pepper now. I like mine on the saltier side - so I add 1/2-1 tsp or so. If you want a thinner sauce, add more coconut milk. I like mine pretty thick, so I stick with about 1/2 cup. IT'S THAT EASY! Now go and pour this over whatever pasta (or pizza!) you please!
