These Cauliflower Rice Breakfast Muffins are a cross between a mini frittata and a muffin. They are packed with fibre and protein and can serve as a great breakfast or snack for hormonal control and to help in a pcos friendly lifestyle as well as help the root cause of your PCOS.
Eating a diet rich in fibre helps your gut health and it will also avoid spikes in your blood sugar – thereby helping you reduce your insulin resistance.
This recipe uses plant based milk. Feel free to substitute for normal milk but for those who suffer from acne I highly recommend sticking to plant based milks. If you want to learn more about your PCOS you can join my PCOS blueprint group coaching program

INSTRUCTIONS
-
Wash and thoroughly dry cauliflower, then remove all greens.
- Cut into small pieces and use the grater attachment of your food processor to grate the cauliflower into “rice.”

-
Spray a muffin tray with cooking spray
-
In a bowl whisk together the eggs, almond milk, salt, nutmeg, garlic and mustard powder. Add in the cauliflower rice.
-
Place a spoonful of the ham, red onion and spinach into the bottom of 9 muffin cups. Pour the egg and cauliflower mixture over top of each and then top each muffin with the remaining ham and spinach.
-
Bake in the oven for 25 minutes until the edges are lightly browned and the tops are fully set.
-
Run a spatula around each muffin to loosen and then place on a wire rack to cool
