Chinese Orange Cauliflower (hclf, raw option)

I remember how much I used to love Chinese Orange Chicken when I was a kid, and how often my family and I would dine at Panda Inn and Panda Express growing up in Los Angeles. Oh how I DO NOT miss those days. It’s hard to believe how unhealthy and careless my lifestyle used to be, and how much it has changed over the years. I am grateful that I have cleared my mind, discovered a healthier lifestyle withย alternatives to old favorites such as this low-fatย Chinese Orangeย Cauliflower recipe.

I think it’s safe to say that I am obsessed with this. I told my family I had to make it 3 times to “recipe test” it, but honestly I just wanted to have this 3 times last week and still wanted to make it again. SO GOOD.

I served my Orange Cauliflower with brown rice, steamed broccoli and sugar snap peas. Feel free to serve this dish with whatever sides you’d like!

A raw alternative to brown rice is ‘Cauliflower Rice’. For that, all you need to do is roughly chop up a head of cauliflower and place it into a food processor. Pulse until it is rice like, then serve it like rice. If desired, you can squeeze the excess liquid out with a clean dish towel over the sink.

Notes

Raw option notes:
I haven’t yet made this raw, but I am almost certain that it will work and be delicious ๐Ÿ™‚
Raw garlic is strong, so I suggest starting off with half then tasting it first.
