SHRIMP AND CAULIFLOWER "GRITS"
Cauliflower can be sneaky--especially when it subs for corn in grits. Whether you're not a fan of regular grits or you're looking to add more vegetables to your diet, riced cauliflower simmered in water and finished with butter and Parmesan is an impressive alternative to the real thing.

Steps:
- Pulse about half of the cauliflower in a food processor until the florets break down into finer pieces about the size of grains of rice (it's totally fine if they clump; think of this step as cauliflower "rice" gone wrong). Transfer to a medium saucepan, pulse the remaining cauliflower and add that to the pan too. Add the milk, 1 tablespoon of the butter, 1/2 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Simmer, stirring frequently, until the mixture is soft and smooth and looks like grits, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in the Parmesan and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if you'd like. Cover and keep warm.
- Season the shrimp with salt and pepper. Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp, garlic and cayenne if using and cook, tossing, until the shrimp are pink and just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat, add the parsley, lemon juice and 1 tablespoon water and stir to coat the shrimp with the sauce. Season with salt and pepper.
- Divide the cauliflower grits among shallow bowls and top with the shrimp and sauce. Serve with lemon wedges.

- Start off by grating the cauliflower on the largest setting of a box grater or by using the grater attachment of the food processor. The texture is much better than buying pre-made riced cauliflower from the store. Preheat a wide pot or pan with high sides over medium heat with 2 tablespoons of oil. Add the onions, ½ teaspoon salt, a couple cracks of pepper, and cook for 8 minutes. Add the garlic and cook another 3-4 minutes until the onions are soft. Add the riced cauliflower along with ½ teaspoon of salt, a few cracks of pepper, and mx well. Cook for 8-10 minutes so some of the moisture from the cauliflower can cook off.
- Meanwhile, pat the moisture off the shrimp using a couple layers of paper towels, it’s important they are dry. Season the shrimp with 2 teaspoons of oil, smoked paprika, onion and garlic powder, and mix well. Let sit at room temperature while you proceed with the grits.
- Add the veggie stock and coconut milk, mix well and bring to a boil. Immediately reduce to a low simmer and cook for 25 minutes with the lid off, stirring often. Check for seasoning after 15 minutes, you will need more salt, but not too much because the cheese is salty. After 25 minutes, turn the heat off and add the grated cheese, parsley, and mix well. Check for seasoning and adjust if needed. Cover the grits and set aside.
- To cook the shrimp, preheat a large pan, preferably cast iron, just above medium-high heat for 3 minutes. Meanwhile, season the shrimp with ¾ teaspoon of salt and mix well. Add 3 tablespoons of ghee to the pan, once it begins to smoke a bit, add half the shrimp to the pan and spread it out in one even layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until deep golden brown, flip, and cook 1 minute more. Shrimp cook incredibly quickly. Remove from pan, add more ghee if needed, and cook the second batch. Once all shrimp are cooked, spoon a bit of ghee over them and mix well so they stay juicy, you can use the leftover ghee as a sauce.

- CAULIFLOWER GRITS: Heat broiler to high. Place jalapeno on a small baking sheet and spray the skin with avocado oil spray. Broil until skin is charred on all sides, about 5 minutes. If you have a gas stove top, you could char your pepper on the burner instead. Place jalapeno in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let stand until cooled.
- Microwave cauliflower according to package directions. Pour cooked cauliflower into medium saucepan. Pour in ½ cup heavy cream, salt and pepper. Cover and bring to a boil. Boil until cauliflower is very soft and cream has reduced, about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Remove and discard skin and seeds from roasted jalapeno; chop finely. Mash cauliflower with a potato masher until it’s the texture of cooked grits. Stir in 2 tablespoons butter and cheese. Cover and set aside while you make the shrimp.
- SHRIMP: Spray large nonstick skillet with avocado oil spray and heat over medium-high heat. Add shrimp shells and tomato paste to skillet. Cook, stirring frequently until shells are bright red and tomato paste is starting to brown, about 2 minutes. Pour in water; bring to a boil.
