Cauliflower Couscous
- Minutes to Prepare:
- Number of Servings: 4
Ingredients
1/2 head cauliflower (approx. 4 cups)3 plum tomatoes2 cloves garlic15 basil leaves2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oilsea salt / pepper
Start your Raw Sauce early in the day for your couscous.
Put 2 Tbsp. olive oil in a bowl.
In that bowl add your tomatoes. Dice up your tomatoes making sure you capture all the juice as you cut the tomatoes.
Either use a garlic press or micro-plane your garlic over the tomatoes.
Chiffonade your basil and throw in bowl.
Season the tomatoes with sea salt and pepper to taste. The salt is going to draw the juices out to help make your sauce. Leave bowl out on the counter all day to marinate.
Do not stir the tomatoes. Let the salt do all the work. A few hours later then you can stir everything in well. Crush the tomatoes as you do so to get all of the juices out. Remember the tomatoes with all this liquid is going to be your sauce.
When it is time to eat take the cauliflower and pulse in your Food Processor to your desired consistency. I start out with a pulse and then I blend it till all of it is broken down and the cauliflower looks like couscous.
Add the couscous to the bowl of your "tomato sauce" and mix well and serve.
Serving Size: 4 - 8 oz. servings
