SWEET & SOUR BEEF OVER "RICE":
This dish totally satisfies cravings for Chinese food. I'm still experimenting with the recipe, but think this is really good as it is. I was surprised how much I enjoyed the cauliflower rice with this.
"RICE"
1. The rice is actually cauliflower chopped into tiny rice size pieces. Heat in microwave until cooked through. Spice to taste (sea salt, pepper, etc) I also sprayed with "I Can't Believe Its Not Butter" which was great.
"SWEET & SOUR BEEF"
1. Cut beef into strips. (This is a good way to use leftover meat from the Roast Beef recipe posted earlier (reposted below)
2. Dice red, green and/or yellow peppers (paprika), green onions, celery, radish, brocolli, water chesnuts, or other Ideal Protein approved vegetables to taste.
3. Place beef into heated pan and douse with vinegar (approx 2 teaspoons)
Add vegetables when meat is warmed.
4. Add 1/2 can of chopped Tomatoes & Onions or Tomatoes & Jalepeno (make sure no added sugar). Or puree 2 tomatoes with 1 teaspoon olive oil.
5. Add in 1 Tablespoon Vinegar, 2 teaspoons Splenda or sugar substitute, sea salt, pepper, or other herbs to taste (I use ginger, lemongrass, basil, and thyme)
6. Stir and taste, adding spices until it has the right flavor. If too thick, you can add water to thin, but be careful not to water it down too much. (Add more tomato sauce if you thin it too much.)

ROSEPEPPER ROAST BEEF:
1. Buy a cut of beef (in Finland, "Pahtopaisti liha")
2. Marinade in mix of olive oil (approx 4 TSP, sea salt, and "herbs de provence" of other herbs to your taste. (I buy fresh herbs, chop them up, and put them in the freezer. Makes it easy to pull out any time and sprinkle on dishes and taste much better than the dried versions.)
3. Bring meat to room temperature.
4. Generously sprinkle with crushed Rose Pepper on both sides. (Should almost coat the meat, not just a little flavor)
5. Add black pepper to taste.
6. Sear the meat in a frying pan for about 3 min each side until the meat is browned all over.
7. Transfer meat to a baking sheet lined with baking paper. You can add some additional spices at this point if you like.
8. Cook for approximate 1.5 hours at 125C (approx 255 F).
