Method:
Cilantro Lime Cauliflower Rice:
In a medium shallow pan, on medium heat, add in the oil. Let it heat up for about 1 minute. Add in the garlic and saute for 30 seconds. Add in the riced veggies, half of the cilantro and half of the spring onions, and saute it for 2-3 minutes. Now increase the heat to high, cover the pan, and let it cook for about 4 minutes, sautéing to make sure it does not burn every minute. This is to char the mixture ever so slightly. Remove the lid and let it cook for another minute to evaporate any water released. Switch off the stove. Mix in the lime juice and saute. Sprinkle with the remaining cilantro, spring onions.
Roasted Butternut Squash and Sweet Potatoes(can be made 3-4 days ahead):
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. In a small baking sheet, add in the chopped butternut squash, sweet potatoes, spices, oil and chipotle in adobo sauce. Mix it all together well. Lay it flat on the baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes. Remove after 30 minutes and let cool.
Flavored Black Beans:
In a small saucepan, add the oil at medium heat. Grate in the garlic and saute for 30 seconds. Add in the black beans, spices and mix for 2 minutes, just to flavor the black beans and incorporate and warm it up.
