INGREDIENTS FOR 4 SERVINGS.

2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, divided

1 red bell pepper, seeded and chopped

1 medium head cauliflower

2-3 tbsp coconut aminos or low sodium soy sauce.

2 green onions or scallions, sliced

Sea salt and fresh black pepper, to taste

INSTRUCTIONS.

Break the cauliflower into small florets and pulse in a food processor for about 25 seconds until it’s like rice consistency. Do not over process it, else it will turn to mush.

Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and drizzle with one tablespoon of your olive oil.

Add the mushrooms and stir fry until browned and tender, about 5 minutes, season with salt and pepper and set aside.

Add the remaining oil to the skillet and cook the garlic until just fragrant, about 1 minute.

Stir in the onion, bell pepper and cauliflower rice, stir fry for 6 minutes until it starts to lightly brown.

Return the mushrooms into your skillet and drizzle everything with coconut aminos/soy sauce.

Cook for additional 3 minutes until everything is well heated through to your liking.

Garnish with sliced green onions and enjoy your meal.
