Protein
1.5 lb ground meat

Staples you’ll need:
Cooking fat
Spices
1.5 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp paprika
½ tsp cumin
½ tsp chili powder
⅛ tsp cayenne
1 tsp salt
Hot sauce to taste (optional)
1 tsp oregano
Garlic powder, salt, and pepper to taste for quiche and cauliflower rice
Step by step:
Preheat the oven to 350.
Spray pan you are using for the quiche (you can use a pie pan, springform pan, baking pan, even muffin tin! Just adjust cooking time accordingly).
BACON: Roughly chop the bacon. Heat a large saute pan and cook bacon on medium high heat. While bacon is cooking, chop half of the onion. Remove bacon from pan onto plate with paper towels. Remove most of the bacon fat from pan.
QUICHE VEGGIES: Cook onion in the same saute pan until translucent. Add spinach and cook until just wilted. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Mix with bacon pieces. Spread mixture in the pan.
EGGS: Crack eggs into a seperate bowl. Whisk with a small amount of water or almond milk, salt, and pepper. Pour over spinach and onion mixture in the pan. Put in the oven. Set a timer for 20 minutes.(don’t worry if it’s not preheated yet, it will be fine!)
STIR FRY VEGGIES: Chop all veggies into small bite-sized pieces.
STIR FRY MEAT: Brown meat in a large saute pan (can use the same one as before) on medium high heat. Season with a little more than half of the seasoning mixture and optional hot sauce to taste. Remove from the pan into a separate bowl.
STIR FRY VEGGIES: Add chopped veggies to the same saute pan. Cook for about 5 minutes, adding small amounts of water if needed and stirring often. Add in the rest of the seasoning mixture and optional hot sauce.
CAULI RICE: While veggies are cooking, heat another saute pan with a small amount of cooking fat. Add in cauliflower rice and cook on medium for about 5 minutes, stirring often. Season with garlic powder, salt, and oregano.
When the timer goes off for the quiche, check to see if the eggs are set or if it needs more time.
