Spicy Cauliflower Fried 'Rice' with Pork
This is a slightly more spicy (zingy?) take on the paleo-style cauliflower fried rice with pork. You could use any protein. Adjust the poblano chile to mild it down or heat it up as desired.
White Chocolate Gingersnaps
My disdain for improperly used white chocolate is, I think, pretty well known, so one of my favorite holiday cookies might surprise you! It's one of the cookies in my Charm City Cakes Christmas cookie tins this year. It's a chewy-centered gingersnap cookie drizzled with white chocolate and chopped candied ginger. What's wonderful about these cookies is that you get a crackly texture from the candied ginger and the outside of the cookie as well as a soft, mushy texture from the inside of the cookie. You also get a sweet creaminess from the white chocolate that tempers the sharpness of the ginger. My philosophy is, when you use ginger, use it!
