Serving: 4-6 servings

Prep time: 20 minutes

Cook time: 20 minutes

Total time: 40 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 pound Ground beef, 90% lean
  • 1/2 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Kosher or sea salt, divided
  • 1 medium-head Cauliflower
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons Canola oil, divided
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon Minced fresh ginger
  • 1 bunch Scallions, sliced, white and green separated
  • 1 cup Frozen pea and carrot blend
  • 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons Soy sauce

Instructions

  1. Cut cauliflower into florets, discarding the core. Using a food processor, pulse florets 3-4 times until a rice-like size is achieved.
  2. Sear ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat for 7 minutes or until well-browned and no pink remains. Stir in pepper and 1 teaspoon salt; transfer to a clean plate, keeping warm.
  3. In a large non-stick skillet, add 1/2 teaspoon canola oil and cook eggs over medium-high heat, stirring continually for 1-2 minutes; stir in remaining salt and set aside with the beef.
  4. Heat the remaining two teaspoons of canola oil over medium-high heat in the same non-stick skillet (wipe clean with a paper towel if necessary). Add cauliflower and sear for 4 minutes, stirring frequently. Stir in garlic, ginger, and scallion whites and cook another 2 minutes while stirring. Add frozen vegetables, sesame oil, soy sauce, and sear for two more minutes while stirring.
  5. Stir beef and egg into the cauliflower mixture. Serve garnished with scallion greens.
