This is the recipe I found for the scavenger hunt. It interested me because I love all the ingredients and someone posted on Facebook during this 10th anniversary that it was one of their favorite recipes.
Sheryl M says
I’m curious what your thought was for using frozen riced cauliflower. Is it just to add in some veggies or does it serve another purpose? Thanks for sharing Sara, I will have to give this one a try.
Debbi says
Hi, can you use fresh blueberries and riced fresh cauliflower – not frozen? Thank you.
Sara says
Yes, you certainly can! I have used fresh fruit and it turned out great. I haven’t used fresh riced cauliflower so you might need to experiment a bit on that one. I wonder if you would need to cook it first? I would probably cook it in the microwave with some water first, drain, and use. It might not need to be fully cooked, but I would want to make sure it was softened somewhat.
Sara says
Yes, you are getting in the nutrition (fiber, vitamins and minerals) with the added veggies, and you are also lowering the calorie density. Eating lower calorie dense foods has helped me tremendously the last couple years with hunger and making weight loss easier. Here is more info on that – https://theholymess.com/calorie-density/
