I am about to start a round (6 years after my last) and am SUPER excited to see these recipes. The presentation is beautiful! I’m printing off different ones to try, and this looks AMAZING.

Yay I’m so glad to hear this Carolyn! I’m such a visual person, I just really wanted to create something that would make hCG seem like a punishment and more like a decadent elegant creative thing to be doing instead. Would love to hear how things end up tasting for you with the ones you try.

Hi, first and foremost, I love this recipie. It is my diet saver. However, can you tell me the calorie count of just the sauce? I made a large batch to use with shrimp and shredded chicken and am trying to figure out the calories. Thanks!
Rayzel Lam
Hello! So glad you loved! Yes certainly- so for the sauce (chopped chipotle peppers, lime juice, diced tomatoes, salt, and water) for 2 servings = 38 calories, or 19 calories per serving. I hope that helps!

Do you buy cauliflower rice? Or do you make it?
Rayzel Lam
You can do either- many grocery stores do have premade cauli rice now, but it’s also easy to make in a food processor – just put the chunks of raw cauli in, and pulse a few times till it’s the desired size. You can also freeze the raw cauli rice if you want to batch make it!
