California_Mexican Cauliflower Rice with Avocado and Kale is a CALRI recipe with calories and macro nutrition details.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Head Cauliflower
  • 1/4 cup Black Bean, drained rinsed
  • 2 tbsp Cilantro, chopped
  • 35.5 g Green Onion, chopped
  • 1 tbsp Vegetable Oil
  • 0.53 cup Lime, juiced
  • 1/4 tsp Salt Black Pepper, ground
  • 2 tbsp Cheddar Cheese
  • 1/4 tsp Chipotle Pepper Adobo Sauce
  • 1 tbsp Vegetable Oil
  • 39.67 g Zucchini, halved sliced
  • 1 cup Tuscan Kale, stemmed chopped
  • 25 oz Egg
  • 1/2 medium Avocado, sliced

Instructions

  1. Place cauliflower florets in a food processor; pulse into rice-sized pieces.
  2. Combine cauliflower "rice", black beans, cilantro, green onions, 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, lime juice, salt, and pepper in a microwave-safe bowl; toss until mixed. Top with Cheddar cheese.
  3. Puree chipotle peppers in adobo in a small bowl with an immersion blender.
  4. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add zucchini in an even layer; place kale on top. Cook, covered, until zucchini is lightly browned and kale starts to wilt, about 5 minutes. Stir in 1 to 3 tablespoons pureed chipotle peppers. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, allowing kale to steam, 3 to 5 minutes.
  5. Fill a saucepan with water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, add eggs, and simmer, about 7 minutes. Remove eggs with a slotted spoon and run under cool water for 30 to 60 seconds. Peel carefully.
  6. Spoon zucchini mixture over Cheddar cheese in the bowl. Microwave until hot, 2 to 3 minutes. Top with peeled eggs and sliced avocado. Season with salt and pepper.
