I made Sweet and Sour Cauliflower Lettuce Wraps.They were delicious. I took the leftovers and made this Sweet and Sour Brussels Sprouts with Raw Zucchini and Squash Noodles. Two meals by just adding sautéed brussel sprouts. Enjoy!
Ingredients:
1 head of cauliflower, broken into florets
10 medium brussels sprouts, outer layer peeled and cut in half
Olive oil to cover sauté pan
1 tsp smoked paprika
1/2 tsp cumin
Sea salt and pepper to taste
Directions :
Add the oil to the pan. Cook on medium heat. Add veggies and spices. Stir. Cook until cauliflower is slightly tender, or longer if you like softer veggies. I love a crunch. Allow the brussels sprouts to get a nice golden color on them. After the sauce is done add the veggies to your sauce. Stir and cook on a low heat for about 2-3 minutes to incorporate the sauce with the veggies.
Ingredients for the Sweet and Sour sauce:
1 tablespoon tomato paste
juice of 1 lemon
1/2 cup water
1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
4 tablespoons organic cane sugar
1 tablespoon gluten free soy sauce)
1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 1/4 cup water, fully dissolved
1/2 tablespoon Sriracha sauce
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 cup diced pineapples
1/2 cup chopped red bell peppers
Directions:
In a large shallow sauce pan, heat the water, apple cider vinegar, ginger, sugar, soy sauce, Sriracha, and tomato paste over medium-low heat. Stir in the cornstarch mixture and stir until fully combined. Add the pineapple and bell pepper and continue to cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Add veggies and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Serve with Raw Zucchini and Squash Noodles or on Lettuce Wraps.
The Raw Veggies:
1 medium Zucchini
1 medium Yellow Squash
Cilantro for garnish
Directions:
Use a veggie spiral and make veggie noodles
If you do not have one you can julienne the veggies, thinly.
Add to a bowl. Top with Sweet and Sour Cauliflower and Brussels Sprouts mixture.
I garnished mines with cilantro and a little olive oil.
