Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium head Cauliflower florets
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, diced
- 1 medium Zucchini, diced
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes, halved
- 0.5 medium Red onion, diced
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 cup Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
Instructions
Begin by preparing the cauliflower. Chop the cauliflower into florets and process them in a food processor until they reach a rice-like consistency. Set aside.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced red onion and sauté for about 2-3 minutes until the onion starts to become translucent.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for an additional 1 minute, stirring frequently to prevent burning.
Add the diced red bell pepper and zucchini to the skillet. Cook for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still have a slight crunch.
Stir in the cauliflower rice and cherry tomatoes. Cook for another 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cauliflower is tender.
Season the mixture with ground cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to ensure the spices are evenly distributed.
Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the fresh parsley and lemon juice.
Serve the keto-friendly faux bulgur warm as a main dish or as a side to your favorite protein.
