Paleo Beef Broccoli with Cauliflower "Rice"

Paleo Beef Broccoli with Cauliflower "Rice"

Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs stir fry beef
2 c. broccoli
1 c. mushrooms, sliced
1/2 head cauliflower
2 tbsp.  scallions, chopped (for garnish)
Marinade (Recipe below)


Marinade:
1 in. ginger
1 lime (juice and zest)
1/2 c. orange juice
1/2 c. Braggs Liquid Amino Acids
2 tbsp. scallions ( green onions) finely chopped
1/4 c. honey

Prep:
Combine all ingredients for marinade in a bowl and whisk together.  Taste.  If you prefer a little sweeter add more honey or orange juice, a little saltier, add more Braggs.  Combine meat and marinade, cover and store in your fridge for a minimum of 24 hours. 

Directions:
Chop and core cauliflower.  Bring a pot of water to boil.  Add cauliflower.  Boil for about 15 minutes, or until cauliflower is tender.  Drain, then use a potato masher to mash up.  Creating our faux rice.

While cauliflower is cooking,
Chop broccoli florets from stems.  Bring a pot of water to boil add broccoli.  Boil for three minutes.  Drain set aside. 

Heat a large pan or wok to med-high heat.  Add marinated stir fry steak, cooking to sear meat.  When the steak has a nice sear add about a half cup of your marinade to your pan.  Add mushrooms.  Add broccolli.  Cover and saute for five minutes. 

While stir fry is cooking, chop 2 sprigs of green onions.

To serve:
Use a cup or bowl to portion cauliflower rice, it just looks prettier.  If looks aren't that important to you, use a spoon:)  Portion cauliflower onto plate.  Spoon a heaping portion of stir fry mix on top of "rice", dress with green onions, and enjoy.

This meal is super tasty and super healthy!!  Enjoy!!
