Carrot-Mint Cauliflower Rice

Ingredients:

1 large head of Cauliflower
3 small Carrots, peeled and grated
2 Tablespoons Coconut Oil or Butter
1.5 Tablespoons of finely chopped Mint
Sea Salt and Black Pepper, to taste

Instructions:

1) Wash Cauliflower, cut off and discard leaves and cut out and discard core so you are left with just the florets.

2) Using the grating blade for your food processor (or you may use a hand-held grater, which will take longer), grate florets in small batches.

3) In a large skillet, melt the coconut oil or butter over medium-high heat.

4) Add grated Cauliflower to skillet and fry on medium-high heat, stirring frequently for about 2 minutes.

5) Add the peeled and grated Carrots, Sea Salt and Black Pepper and cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently.

6) Turn the burner off, add the fresh mint leaves and stir them in.

7) Top both meatballs and rice with Coconut Aminos and garnish with fresh mint leaves (optional).

Enjoy!
