Ingredients

Base

  • 4 cups cauliflower rice
  • 8 oz crimini mushrooms
  • 1 cup chopped fresh basil
  • 1 small red onion chopped
  • 3 medium garlic cloves minced

Sauce

  • 1 can full fat coconut milk be sure to use full fat canned coconut milk (otherwise, it won't be thick and creamy). I use Thai Kitchen brand.
  • 1 cup chicken broth or beef broth
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup nutritional yeast
  • 1/4 cup tapioca flour
  • 1-2 tablespoons Italian spice blend
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • fresh cracked pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350F. Grease a 8" square casserole baking dish with avocado oil.
  • In a skillet, sauté the chopped onions and minced garlic in water or oil until soft.
  • Layer in the cauliflower rice, sautéed onions and garlic, mushrooms, and fresh basil into the casserole dish and set aside.
  • Add all the ingredients for the sauce into a saucepan. Blend using a hand immersion blender or whisk. Once the mixture is smooth, bring to a simmer and continue to whisk (or if you are using a hand blender- just blend it on occasion). Simmer and whisk for a few minutes until the sauce thickens, then take off the heat and pour over the casserole.
  • Bake casserole on 350F for about 55 minutes until the edges are golden.
