Rise and shine with protein-packed Slow Cooker Eggs over Cauliflower Hash!

Slow Cooker Eggs Over Cauliflower Hash
It’s back to school time which means busy mornings. If you haven’t noticed, my passion is packing protein into a nutritious breakfast. When I saw this month’s Recipe Redux theme, I broke out into a little dance! We were challenged to: “Rise and Shine with a Savory Breakfast-The trend of protein-packed breakfasts is catching on…and back-to-school time is looming. This month, show us new healthy takes on eating savory or dinner-inspired dishes for breakfast.” MY toughest decision was choosing which recipe to share.
Most of my favorite breakfast recipes are on the sweeter side, so for this savory assignment, I chose to cater to my obsession with riced cauliflower and create Slow Cooker Eggs over Cauliflower Hash. It’s high in protein and low in carbohydrates and provides 100% of the daily value of Vitamin C, 15% of Vitamin A and iron and 20% of calcium. You can refrigerate the extras and reheat quickly for breakfast, lunch or dinner. If you love spice, add some harissa, red pepper flakes or sriracha. Top your dish with creamy tzatziki or pesto for more of a Mediterranean flair.

Nutrition
NOTE: ***You can find riced cauliflower premade in the produce section or freezer section of the supermarket. Chopped cauliflower crumbles are not small enough to make this recipe. If purchasing these crumbles, toss them in the blender and pulse until you have the consistency of rice, the smaller the better to make these stick together. To make your own, add about ½ of one head of cauliflower broken in pieces to a blender or food processor and gently pulse until it’s the consistency of rice.

Interesting about the rice vs. crumbles. The other day I bought crumbles and was confused as to why it wasn’t the same but just moved on. Maybe if I had thought about it I would have figured it out ha ha either way I have frozen cauliflower RICED in the fridge ready to make this!
Isn’t it amazing how a simple thing can make or break a recipe? 🙂
