Broccoli "rice" and cheese

Sometimes you want comforting food. This day was one of those days.  I love broccoli rice and cheese. I try to stay away from rice. I used cauliflower instead. I used the ninja to chop everything up.  1 bunch of broccoli 1 head of cauliflower  Sauté w salt and pepper.  Cheese sauce 1c almond milk (plain) 6 tbs nutritional yeast 1 tbs of non butter Garlic powder to taste Onion powder to taste Salt/paper to taste  Put milk in a sauce pan and add the ingredients until smooth. Pour on the broccoli and cauliflower. Enjoy! 

Cauliflower and lentil patties (leftovers)

I knew while I was eating last night that I wanted to make these into patties for burgers. We don't own bread lol. So a patty w sautéed kale and onion w garlic will do. Lol  I had about two cups of cauliflower mixture left over. I added 1/2c of breadcrumbs. You can eyeball it though if you like. Add different seasonings if you like too. Something that would compliment what you already got going on w the cauliflower. I used a 1/2c to scoop out the mixture. I wanted to keep them the same size.  I put in the oven at 350 for 20 min. Half way thru flip.  While those were baking I sautéed onion garlic and kale.  I also ate the spoonful of what was left :)  This is good. Make it. You'll love it. This would be amazing on bread too. Toasted bread. We just don't have any. 

Cauliflower and lentil tacos

Meatless Monday!!! I was watching a show on Cooking Channel 'How to live to 100' and they made cauliflower tacos. I put my own spin on it ofcourse.  Add cauliflower to the food processor and break it down until it's kinda like mashed potatoes  I ended up having to take some of the cauliflower out. I cut an onion up and put it in the pan to brown. I didn't use any oil at all in the recipe. I have an awesome pan lol.  I added the cauliflower and burrito seasoning to the onions.  On the show they used a can of tomatoes but I blended my own.  I mixed everything together to let the water cook out.  I boiled lentils and added it to the cauliflower.  Mixed it all together and cooked the water out some more.  I love corn tortillas. I used them. Cut up some cilantro and limes and put some Valentina on everything. They are so good!
