Healthy vegetarian and vegan recipes to alleviate the symptoms of female hormonal imbalances induced by PCOS and CAH

Low-Carb Vegetarian Bibimbap




You’re in for a treat! This low-carb version of Korean ‘Bibimbap’ is the perfect reason to use up some of the leftover veggies sitting in your fridge. Traditionally, this dish combines various kinds of pickled vegetables and stir-fried meats on top of boiled white rice. In order to make this hearty and filling meal PCOS and vegetarian friendly, the recipe uses cauliflower rice. If you do follow a vegan diet, feel free to omit the fried egg served on top. I promise, this will be delicious nonetheless!

Ingredients:


Here we go, for two portions you’ll need:

1 head of cauliflower
4 Tbsp of soybean sprouts
4 Tbsp Kimchi
4 Tbsp of seaweed
3 packed cups fresh baby spinach
1 clove of garlic
5 radishes
A splash light soysauce
1 Tbsp sesame seeds
OPTIONAL:
2 eggs


1.     Firstly, pulse the head of cauliflower in a food processor into small crumbs which resemble rice
2.     Heat up a couple of tablespoons of water on medium heat in a medium-sized pot. Steam your cauliflower rice for 10 minutes with the lid on and season with salt and pepper.
3.     In the meantime, boil your bean sprouts for 3 minutes. Slice the radishes.
4.     Sauté your baby spinach together with the grated garlic clove in another pan and wait until it has wilted down. Add a splash of soy sauce and remove from heat.
5.     Assemble your bowl by placing the kimchi, sautéed spinach mixture, seaweed, radishes and soybean sprouts on top of your cauliflower rice and sprinkle with sesame seeds. If you want to, finish this meal off with a fried egg. Enjoy loves!




PS: If you are suffering PCOS and worry about your hormonal levels, please do not be afraid to eat soy! There are recent studies backing the fact that soy is 100% safe to consume! It is actually proven to have positive effects on PCOS patients (See the reference below).
