Guys. This is an amazing dish. It’s like taking a juicy, flavorful burger patty and sticking it on rice with gravy and a fried egg. What’s not to love about that? I’d been planning on trying it for ages and finally got around to it a few weeks ago, and now I’m kicking myself for not trying it sooner. This Loco Moco with Cauliflower Rice has become one of my favorite ways to include cauliflower in our diet, and can be adapted for the autoimmune protocol. Of course, if you do eat rice, you can serve it over that instead!
Looking for Low-FODMAPÂ Recipes?
The low-FODMAP diet is often prescribed for people with IBS or Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO), and there’s a huge overlap of that demographic with people with autoimmune disease. My e-book 28 Days of Low-FODMAP AIP combines both IBS- and autoimmune-friendly diets in a 28-day meal plan designed to jump start and simplify this often-challenging diet change. Just you wait: The meal plan includes 50 exclusive low-FODMAP recipes you won’t find on my website or anywhere else, with dishes like Chicken Vindalo, Jambalaya, and crispy, crunchy Tostones. You’ll be amazed at the variety of flavors still available to you! The ebook is available as a digital download for $9.99.
Loco Moco with Cauliflower Rice
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 1 pound ground beef
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper omit for AIP
- 1/8 cup arrowroot powder
- 1-2 tablespoons water cold
- 4 cups cauliflower rice cooked and kept warm
- 4 whole eggs omit for AIP
Instructions
- Form the beef into patties and fry in the oil over medium heat for about 3 minutes on each side or until cooked to your liking.
- Meanwhile, bring the broth to a simmer in a small saucepan over medium-high heat and stir in the salt and pepper.
- Combine the arrowroot and cold water in a separate dish to make a thick slurry, then slowly pour it into the simmering broth, stirring constantly until a thick gravy forms.
- Once the beef patties are done cooking, remove from the pan and set aside. Crack the eggs into the pan, season with salt and pepper to taste, and cook until the whites are solid but the yolks are still runny.
- Place 1 cup of cauliflower rice on each of four plates, then top each with a beef patty and about 1 cup of gravy before placing a fried egg on top.
