Cauli-fried rice. Sounds weird, right? Whenever people first hear of cauliflower rice they don’t really understand it. How can cauliflower taste like rice? It’s actually so much easier than you think. Once the cauliflower is chopped and mixed for a bit in a food processor, the consistency turns almost exactly like white or brown rice. […]

Do you like chipotle? Of course you do. Everyone does, it’s just a known fact. Sadly, as much as I love burrito bowls, going out to eat all of the time can get pretty expensive. That’s why 9 times out of 10, I make burrito bowls for myself at home. This bowl is 10 times […]

Honestly, oatmeal gets such a bad rep. Most people I talk to are convinced that it is boring, bland, and tastes like dirt.
