Move over tofu scramble there’s a new option in town. My family is TOTALLY OBSESSED with this scramble, I love serving it with sweet potato hash + toast or stuffed into a drool worthy breakfast burrito. The best part is you can easily use frozen cauliflower (I often do) to make this recipe come together in a matter of minutes. It’s perfect for meal prepping too.

Cauliflower Scramble

  • 1 medium head of cauliflower, cut into super small pieces OR 2 (12 ounce bags) frozen cauliflower (no need to cut)

  • Olive oil (about 2-3 tablespoons)
