I love it when you figure out a new way to cook an old favorite. In this case: cauliflower. During the winter months Thor and I eat curry-roasted cauliflower like it's our job. Between the two of us we can put down an entire head of cauliflower as a side at dinner if we don't reign ourselves in. It's that good. Buuut - even favorites can get a little routine, so I was intrigued when I came across a recipe that used cauliflower as a replacement for rice. The recipe is from the website
The Clothes Make the Girl (rapidly becoming my go-to site for reading/researching Paleo-friendly recipes) - and it's called
Fouscous Cauliflower. Basically it's a rice pilaf without the rice and it is two things that I crave in a recipe: 1) delicious, and 2) mindlessly easy.

The bonus recipe of the week isn't really a true-recipe. I just made it up to use up some ingredients in my fridge: basil-arugula pesto without cheese. Yuuuum! So good in eggs, or mixed into dressing. Here's what I blended together:
- 2 cups mixed basil and arugula
- a handful of toasted walnuts
- 6 roasted garlic cloves
- sea salt
- enough olive oil to make a paste
