    Did you consider cauliflower rice with pad kra pao? The Guardian recipe is quite salty because it is meant to be a condiment for rice. I prefer cauliflower rice raw, just blitzed in the food processor to a grain size. It can be warmed in the microwave but it is more neutral tasting left raw.

    I didn’t consider including cauliflower rice, I’m not a big fan of it because it doesn’t do anything that rice does in a dish (well other than dilute the flavor of the main dish). And “ricing” doesn’t do the cauliflower itself any favors either :# I typically increase the amount of whatever veggie is meant to be in the dish, and I forgot to mention here that I did increase the amount of green beans which worked well.

    I eat very low sodium in general, I typically get less than half the recommended amount of sodium per day — just a personal preference, I find most recipes too salty and usually adjust the salt way down.

    I hadn’t thought about trying raw cauliflower, might try that sometime, thanks for the suggestion! I usually roast my cauliflower in the oven, including for dishes that call for cauliflower rice (or “cauli-mash”). I love the flavor and texture of roasted cauliflower. But I don’t feel that cauliflower in any form would improve pad kra pao 😉

    Healthy low carbs, relatively high on protein meal that is made in 10-15 minutes.
