I am a huge fan of coffee cake, even as a non-coffee drinker, I love the idea of a piece of cake with my morning beverage. Cake for breakfast. How fun. This particular coffee cake started with my favorite coffee cake recipe (Dream Coffee Cake), and I simply adjusted it to give it a fun spring makeover.

You can make this cauliflower rice recipe in the skillet, in a wok, or roast it in the oven in a sheet pan. The oven version is delicious and nutty; the skillet version is faster and has a closer texture to rice. Either way, the end result is delicious.

Lately I just can’t get enough of chicken adobo and chicken tikka masala, both of which go perfectly with cauliflower rice....

Chermoula is a sauce, similar to a pesto, used in North African cooking as a marinade to flavor fish or seafood, but it can be used on other meats, vegetables or stirred into couscous. Last week I had a Grilled Shrimp Chickpea Salad at Lana’s in Charleston, SC (I will be sharing that recipe tomorrow) that was flavorful and healthy, I asked Chef Ondo for the recipe. Since this sauce can be used in so many ways, I thought I would share it on it’s own first as I know I plan on using the rest in other dishes this week....

You can whip it up in about 5 minutes and throw it into the oven....
