recipe #15 - Black Bean Stir Fry & Cauliflower Rice

I have a problem, I am obsessed with cauliflower.   I've used it as a replacement for spaghetti noodles and cannot get enough of it mashed, I swear you will not notice a difference between that and potatoes as long as you puree it to death.

I read about cauliflower 'rice' a few months ago and have been making it pretty religiously since. I live in Chinatown and wanted to have a 'healthier' version of the cheap take out I crave as soon as I step outside.

Cauliflower Rice Ingredients:

-1 head cauliflower
-1 tbsp of olive oil

1. Wash Cauliflower.
2. Using kitchen scissors cut into small florets, add into a food processor and pulse into fine grains.
3. Heat oil in pan, add cauliflower and sautee until softened.
4. Serve as you would rice.

*While this was sauteing, I made the rest of the stir fry.

Black Bean Stir Fry:

Ingredients:

-1 red pepper, finely chopped
-1 onion, finely chopped
-3 stems of celery, finely chopped
-2 green onions, finely chopped
-1/4 cup cucumber, finely chopped
-1 pkg of ground turkey
-3 tbsp of black bean sauce (I cheated here by using Lee Kum Kee's Black Bean Garlic Sauce)

1. Add ground turkey in a pan, once cooked remove and leave in a bowl.
2. Add vegetables to the pan and once cooked add ground turkey back in.
3. Add sauce and simmer until cauliflower rice is cooked.
