Ingredients

The following ingredients have 2 Servings
  • 1 large head of cauliflower, leaves and stem removed, roughly chopped
  • 1 cup vegetable broth
  • 3 tablespoons hot sauce
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 2 tablespoons fat of choice (I used bacon fat)
  • 1lb uncured smoked ham steak, diced
  • 1 zucchini, diced
  • 1 yellow squash, diced
  • 1 package mushrooms (about 8oz), sliced
  • 1/2 small yellow onion, diced
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons fat of choice (I used bacon fat)
  • however many eggs you want – I recommend 1-2 per person

Instruction

  • Let’s get the veggies going. They take long. So dice them up. Place a large skilletover medium heat, add your fat of choice, add your minced garlic clove, then toss in your veggies. Use a spatula to move them around and heat all sides.
  • Now it’s time to rice your cauliflower. Place your shredding attachment on your food processor and shred your chopped cauliflower on down. If you don’t have a food processor, you can also use a cheese grater and just grate/rice your cauliflower on that. It builds forearm strength anyways.
  • Place a medium saucepan over medium heat and add your 2 tablespoons fat of choice to the saucepan.
  • Toss in your minced garlic clove then once the garlic becomes fragrant, add in your riced cauliflower. Toss to help coat them cauliflower and not burn.
  • Give your cauliflower about 2-3 minutes to begin to cook down then add your cup of vegetable broth.
  • Let the vegetable broth cook off, about 6-8 minutes. Then add your tomato paste, hot sauce, garlic and onion powder, and salt and pepper. Mix well and set under medium heat to cook down.
  • While your cauliflower grits are cooking down, mix your veggies around, then add your garlic powder, dried parsley, and salt and pepper. Add a splash of water to the pan then cover to let steam.
  • Once veggies are almost done cooking, add your diced ham to mix around with all those flavors.
  • Lastly, add a small skillet to the stove top and cook some eggs up however you like. I made my eggs over easy, because it’s just so easy!! I’m funny.
  • Place grits down, then toppings, then some eggs. Mash it all together. And eat!
