Paleo Stuffing
Ingredients
1 head cauliflower (chopped into florets)
1 tbsp coconut oil
Sea salt and black pepper (to taste)
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
4 cups portobello mushrooms (diced)
1 leek (chopped)
3 stalks celery (diced)
1 cup walnuts
1 lemon (juiced)
3 garlic cloves (minced)
1 tbsp thyme
1/2 cup parsley (chopped)
1/2 tsp sea salt
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Toss your cauliflower florets in coconut oil. Season with sea salt and black pepper to taste. Spread the cauliflower across your baking sheet and bake in the oven for 30-minutes.
- Remove cauliflower from the oven and set aside. Reduce oven heat to 375°F.
- While your cauliflower roasts, place a frying pan over medium heat. Add half of your olive oil and sauté mushrooms, leek, and celery for about 10 minutes or until the mushrooms are soft.
- In a food processor, add the walnuts, lemon juice, garlic, thyme, parsley, and sea salt. Add the remaining olive oil and roasted cauliflower and pulse (do not blend) until the mixture reaches a coarse, stuffing-like consistency. Do not over process as you do not want the mixture to turn into a paste. Note: if you don’t mind some manual labor, you can skip the food processor and use a fork and knife to finely chop the stuffing. Once it reaches a good consistency, spoon the mixture into a baking dish. Place in the oven and bake for 1 hour. Stir every 15 minutes or so to prevent burning. Place it in the oven and bake it for an hour. Stir every 15 minutes (give or take) to prevent burning.
