Ingredients

Spicy Tahini Riced Cauliflower Bowl

  • 1 lb bag frozen riced cauliflower
  • 4 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 16 oz package super firm tofu drained & patted dry (pressed if necessary)
  • 1 ea. medium onion chopped fine
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 ea. red bell pepper chopped
  • 2 ea. green onions chopped

Spicy Tahini Sauce

  • 1/4 cup tahini
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice ~1-2 large lemons
  • 1 tsp roasted sesame seeds
  • 1 Tbsp chili garlic sauce
  • 1 Tbsp red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Start by draining and pressing your super firm tofu. Cut into cubes and coat in 2-3 tbsp olive oil and 1 tsp each of salt & black pepper. Roast in the oven at 350F for 25 - 30 minutes, or until tofu has started to brown.
  • Add 2 tbsp olive oil to a large non stick saute pan over medium to medium high heat. Once hot, add you onions and cook until translucent, 2-3 minutes.
  • Next, add your bell pepper + 3 cloves of garlic and cook for another 3-5 minutes.
  • Add your frozen riced cauliflower and cook for another 8-10 minutes or until cooked to your preferred texture.
  • While the cauliflower is cooking, make your sauce by adding all ingredients to a bowl and whisking together.
  • Once riced cauliflower stir fry has cooked, stir in your roasted tofu, chopped scallions, salt, and the spicy tahini sauce. Mix together until everything is evenly combined.
  • Add additional salt and black pepper to taste. Garnish with extra chopped scallions, sesame seeds, and red pepper flakes. Enjoy!
