Wisk all ingredients together till frothy. (Maybe 15-20 strokes).
Heat a small non-stick skillet or crepe pan coated with cooking spray over medium heat.
Pour 1/3 of batter (about 1/8 of a cup) into pan and swirl to coat. You want the entire bottom of the pan evenly covered. (If there are 'holes' in your batter take a little of the batter to fill in.).
Cook about 1 min until nicely set and slightly browned - the top will look cooked.
Flip to brown the second side.
Remove from pan onto waiting plate and repeat until batter is gone.
Fill with your choice of toppings - fruit, ricotta cheese, etc -- .

It’s interesting how versatile cauliflower is. When you use the veggie in place of something else (like rice, for instance), it magically takes on the flavor of what you’re substituting it for. It’s sort of weird!
Here’s a quick fried rice recipe using cauliflower instead of rice. This is a perfect side dish to pair with Judy’s Egg Roll in a Bowl recipe.
This faux fried rice is perfect for all cycles of the 17 Day Diet. Enjoy!
Faux Fried Rice (Cauliflower)
Ingredients
6 oz frozen peas and carrots, thawed (1/2 of a 12 oz package) (peas allowed starting C2)
1-2 teaspoons garlic, minced
2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
1 10 oz package of Cauliflower Florets or 1 Medium Cauliflower Head, cut into florets
Soy Sauce, to taste
2 Eggs, beaten
2-3 Green Onions, chopped
Directions
In a food processor or with a grater, rice your cauliflower into rice-sized pieces. Set aside.
In a large pan, heat 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil on medium high to high heat. Sauté thawed peas and carrots and garlic for about 5 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Next, add your riced cauliflower to the hot pan and cook for about 3 minutes, or just enough to slightly cook through, stirring occasionally.
When most of the moisture is absorbed in the pan, stir in a few splashes of soy sauce and cook for about a minute. Add a few more splashes of soy, to taste, or until the cauliflower takes on a slightly brownish color. Don’t over season with soy sauce or your rice will be mushy and salty. The idea is to keep your pan hot and liquids to a minimum.
Next, make a well in the center of the pan and add a tablespoon of olive oil and heat through. Add your beaten eggs in the center of the pan until almost cooked through. Right before eggs are thoroughly cooked, stir the eggs into the remaining mixture until combined.
Add in chopped green onions and mix through. Garnish with green onions and serve.
Yields 3-4 servings
Approved for all cycles
Omit peas if on Cycle 2 (or use them as there aren’t very many!)
