Ingredients
- 1/2 large cucumber
- 1/2 small zucchini
- 1 large carrot
- 3.5 ounces crinkly cabbage
- 10 ounces ground beef
- 16 ounces cauliflower (or 3 cups cauliflower rice or cooked short grain rice)
- 1/3 cup sesame seeds (omit for AIP)
- 1/3 cup butter (or either olive or coconut oil)
- 3 tablespoons tamari
- Hot red pepper sauce (omit for AIP)
- fat (for sauteing)
- 2 eggs, scrambled (optional)
Instructions
- Grate vegetables into a large bowl.
- In a little fat, brown the ground meat in a frying pan over medium high heat and add to bowl.
- If using eggs, scramble in a pan with a little coconut oil or butter.
- Process the cauliflower through a food processor until rice sized. Add a little fat into the frying pan and add cauliflower and a bit of water and saute.The cauliflower should be cooked and soft but still with some bite, not mush. (Omit this step if using rice.)
- Add cauliflower (or rice) to large bowl.
- Pour sesame seeds onto a clean dry pan and shake to distribute the seeds. Heat at medium heat, occasionally shaking to prevent burning. When the seeds are brown and fragrant, add to the large bowl.
- Pour oil or let butter melt on top of the hot ingredients. Pour over tamari and mix well.
- Serve and add hot sauce to individual bowls. Enjoy!

Notes
- Vegetable Options: Besides the vegetables listed in the recipe, I've also used chopped lettuce, radish, and bean sprouts.
- Meat Alternatives: The meat can be substituted with a fried egg or two per person for a vegetarian version. Any ground meat will work, I used beef but pork or even chicken will fit.
- Soy Alternative: If you need to be soy free, feel free to substitute coconut aminos + salt for the tamari. The best fat to use is butter, for that nutty flavour, however if you can't eat dairy, olive oil or baking coconut oil will do.
