Submitted by barbarasjeans

Makes 8 servings

Using Cauliflower instead of pasta is a delicious healthy way to eat more raw foods, AND less grains. May substitute pumpkin seeds for almonds, and eliminate sesame seeds.

1 cup green pepper, italian light green, diced
1/4 cup parsley, chopped
1 1/2 tbsp thyme, chopped
1/4 cup almonds, toasted, chopped fine
1/3 cup lemon juice, or juice of two lemons
2 tbsp olive oil
1/4 tsp salt, (sea salt) or to taste
1/4 tsp black pepper, or to taste
1/4 tsp sesame seeds, toasted, ground
Directions
  1. In food processor, pulse cauliflower until it resembles couscous. Add cauliflower to a mixing bowl with peppers, herbs, and pumpkin seeds; drizzle in olive oil and lemon juice and season to taste with sea salt and freshly grated black pepper.
