Directions

​

Cauliflower Rice

​

1. We’ll start out with the cauliflower rice recipe. There are a couple different ways to make this (you can pan fry it or bake it) — today we’re sticking ours in the oven.

2. Chop florets and place them in your food processor. Pulse the cauliflower until it resembles rice. Don’t over do it or you’ll wind up with cauliflower mashed potatoes.

3. Cauliflower has a lot of liquid in it (more than you’d guess), so the next step is to squeeze some of it out. Place the cauliflower on top of a paper towel, then add a second piece of paper towel on top. Firmly press down on the cauliflower with your hands until you get as much liquid out as possible. Then spread the cauliflower evenly on a baking sheet and sprinkle it with salt. Place it in the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for twenty minutes, or until it browns slightly. Alternatively, you can pan fry the cauliflower with a little bit of oil or butter.

4. Though it tastes significantly different than rice, cauliflower is such a great alternative for anyone who is avoiding grains. And it’s honestly delicious!

Rainbow Salsa

​

1. Another delectable way to taste the rainbow, this salsa is legit.

2. Chop up all of your ingredients into tiny pieces. Then line them up in rainbow order. That’s it!

3. We get it — the ingredients taste better when mixed (you want a little bit of each flavor in every bite), so feel free to stir them together when you’re about to eat. It’ll still be pretty!

​

Spicy Yogurt Sauce

​

1. This is a quick and easy alternative to sour cream and it tastes SO GOOD.

2. Add your favorite hot sauce to Greek yogurt and mix. Taste the sauce and keep adding hot sauce until it reaches the spice level you want.

​

Ground Pork

​

1. To keep these tacos classic, we’re adding taco seasoning to our meat.Fully cook your ground pork on medium heat. Then add a half cup of water to the entire packet of taco seasoning. Stir the seasoning mixture into the pork until combined. We opted to leave the juices from the pork in the pan, but you can drain it first for a healthier version.
