Ingredients:
1 head cauliflower, roughly chopped
1 stalk celery, finely chopped
1 1/2 bell peppers (any color), diced
2 small tomatoes, roughly chopped
1⁄2 large onion, chopped
1 clove of garlic
3/4 pound grass-fed ground beef (if vegan, use about 2 cups bean of choice)
1/3 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped and loosely packed
1⁄4 cup raw apple cider vinegar
1⁄2 cup organic, low-sodium beef or vegetable broth
1⁄2 cup nutritional yeast (optional)
sea salt & pepper, to taste
organic unrefined, virgin coconut oil (for cooking)
Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 450F.
2. Place 2 rimmed baking sheets to preheat in the oven. (optional, but helps cook the
veggies faster and gives them a nice roasted bottom.)
3. Take chopped cauliflower and toss it in a large bowl with 1-2 tbsp melted coconut oil.
Add in nutritional yeast (if using) and sea salt. Toss to coat.
4. In another bowl, toss the tomatoes, onion, and peppers in a tbsp of melted coconut
oil, salt and freshly ground pepper.
5. Once oven is heated, take out baking sheets and line with parchment paper, if
desired. Place in an even layer the cauliflower on one baking sheet and other veggies
on the other baking sheet.
6. Bake until nicely roasted, about 20-25 minutes.
7. While baking, sauté garlic in coconut oil over medium heat. Add celery and cook
until slightly softened.
8. Add in grass-fed ground beef and brown, adding sea salt and pepper to taste.
9. Once veggies are done, remove them (except for cauliflower) from their baking
sheets and add to the beef mixture. Pour in broth and apple cider vinegar and simmer
until cooked down slightly. Stir in parsley.
10. While mixture is cooking down, place the cauliflower in a high-powered blender or
food processor and puree. You may need to add more nutritional yeast or sea salt at
this point.
11. Pour beef mixture into an 8-inch pie plate and top with the roasted cauliflower
puree.
12. Bake at 375F for 15-25 minutes or until thoroughly heated and the topping has a
golden color. (Color will be lighter if nutritional yeast is omitted).
13. Enjoy! A warm and satisfying dinner!
