About this recipe:

This dish sounds fancy - but it couldn't be more simple to pull together. It's one of our favorite grain-free, superfood-packed dishes that delights everyone who tastes it. 

Ingredients

  • 3 TB Garlic Olive Oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, sliced
  • 4 scallions, thinly sliced on a bias, plus more for garnish
  • 4 cups (1 medium head) riced cauliflower
  • 3 cups spinach, roughly chopped
  • ¼ cup sesame seeds, toasted, plus more for garnish
  • 2 tsp lime zest
  • 2 TB lime juice
  • Salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Directions

  1. In a large saute pan over medium-low heat, add oil. Saute garlic and scallions until aromatic and softened but not golden brown in color, 2 to 3 minutes.
  2. Increase to medium heat, add cauliflower, stir constantly to prevent browning, and sweat until tender, 8 to 10 minutes. 
  3. Add spinach and continue to stir until fully incorporated and wilted, 2 to 3 minutes.
  4. Turn off heat, add sesame seeds, lime juice and zest and season to taste with salt and pepper.
  5. Transfer to a serving bowl and garnish with scallions and sesame seeds.
