Cauliflower Tortillas (Paleo, Grain Free, Gluten free)

Monday, September 09, 2013


http://schneiderchen.de | © 2013 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com




I discovered this recipe on slimpalate via Pinterest a little while ago. It is surprisingly delicious, super easy to make, low-carb, low-calorie and gluten-free. You can use them as the pizza crust or simply top with fresh cheese spread or guacamole...very much like you would with a warm soft tortilla, but without extra calories or carbohydrates.

  • 3/4 head Cauliflower, riced or 2 cups riced and packed
  • 2 Small eggs
  • Sea salt and black pepper to taste
  1. Preheat oven to 190C/375F and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  2. Separate cauliflower into smaller florets and remove most of the stem. Pulse until you get a texture slightly finer than rice. Once it’s riced measure it to make sure you have 2 cups packed.
  3. Place riced cauliflower in bowl and microwave for 2 minutes and stir, then another two minutes and stir again then place in a dish towel and squeeze excess water out as hard as you can. Be careful not to burn yourself because it’s going to be very hot.
  4. Place drained cauliflower back in bowl and add two eggs, salt and pepper and mix until well combined. Divide the mixture onto a baking sheet into 6 small fairly flat circles.
  5. Place in the hot oven for 10 minutes then pull out of the oven and carefully peel them off the parchment and flip them and place back in the oven for 5-7 more minutes. Once they’re done place them on a wire rack to cool slightly.
  6. Heat a medium sized pan over medium heat and place the tortillas into the pan pressing down slightly and brown them to your liking. Don’t skip this step because it gives them slightly crispy on the edges and gives them a wonderfully nutty taste.

Kumato Avocado Salad

Friday, August 16, 2013


http://schneiderchen.de | © 2013 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com




A very juicy and tasty kumato tomato salad layered with traditional red tomatoes and avocado drizzled with argan oil, white wine vinegar and lemon juice.
Kumato, originally from the Galapagos Islands, also known as the black tomato, its colour actually ranges from dark green to a deep brownish-red when ripe. Besides its markedly darker colour, the Kumato is much sweeter and has a intenser aroma than the regular tomatoes.

  • 2 tsp Black sesame seeds
  • 2 Kumato tomatoes
  • 2 Vine-ripened tomatoes
  • 1 Ripe avocado
  • Basil leaves
  • Sea salt and pepper
  • 2 tbsp Argan oil
  • 1 tbsp White wine vinegar
  • 1 tbsp Lemon juice
  1. Dry roast the sesame seeds in a pan on medium-low heat, shaking the pan occasionally, until toasted. Remove from the heat and set it aside to cool.
  2. Cut the tomatoes into even slices. Simply slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, cut into slices and remove the peel.
  3. Arrange the slices of tomatoes and avocado and basil leaves on a plate. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with argan oil, white wine vinegar and lemon juice. Sprinkle with toasted black sesame seeds.
