Cauliflower rice puttanesca


I had some tomato sauce left after using half in zoodles and went looking for a new recipe to try with ingredients I had readily available. I chanced upon this one and it was perfect for that quick lunch on a weekday.

Here’s how I made mine.

Ingredients:

2 cups of fresh organic cauliflower rice

1 cup home made tomato sauce

some fresh green onions

2 cloves minced garlic

olive oil

salt and pepper to taste

some crushed red pepper flakes

some fresh basil leaves

Can also add some cheese

Check here for the tomato sauce recipe.

Heat 1-2 tsp oil in a pan. Add sliced green onions and garlic and fry lightly. Add cauliflower rice and fry for 5-6 minutes. Add sauce and continue frying for another 6-8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

Transfer to a bowl. Toss in pickled olives, capers, pepperoncini, and asparagus. Turned out delicious especially with a side of olive bread and baklava!
