Ingredients

• 1.33 lb. 95% lean ground beef
• 4 scallions
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tbsp. fresh ginger, minced
• 2 cups asparagus, chopped
• 2 tbsp. low sodium soy sauce (or coconut aminos)
• 2 tsp. Asian garlic chili paste (like sambal oelek)
• 1/4 cup Thai basil
• 1 cauliflower
• 1/4 cup onion
• 1 garlic clove
• 1 tbsp. coconut oil (or olive oil)

Directions

1. Prepare the cauliflower rice. Chop the cauliflower into florets and add to a food processor with the onion and garlic. Pulse into fine rice like pieces. You may have to do this in batches depending on your food processor. To cook, saute the cauliflower rice in 1 tbsp. coconut oil over medium heat until soft. You can also microwave it for 4-5 minutes.

2. Add the beef to a hot nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Brown and break up the larger chunks as you go until no longer pink.

3. Add in the garlic, ginger, green onions, and asparagus. Cook until the asparagus is just tender, about 3-4 minutes.

4. Add the soy sauce, chili paste, and basil. Cook for 30 seconds and remove from heat. Taste and season as needed with additional soy or chili sauce.

5. Serve the Thai Basil Beef over the cauliflower rice.
