Ingredients:

Ground Beef (93% lean or leaner)
Cauliflower, cut into florets and stem pieces
Salt, divided
Turmeric
Ground Ginger
Garam Masala
Tomatoes, seeded, diced (1-1/2 cups)
Frozen Peas

Directions:

On your grill's side burner, place cauliflower in large saucepan. Cover with water; bring to boil.
Cook 10 minutes or until very tender. Reserve 1/4 cup of the cooking liquid.
Drain cauliflower and return to pot.
Mash cauliflower with potato masher until slightly chunky. Stir in reserved 1/4 cup cooking liquid, 1 tsp at a time to moisten. Season with 3/4 tsp of salt and turmeric.
Preheat grill to medium-high.
Meanwhile, heat large ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add ginger and garam masala; cooking until spices are fragrant, about one minute. Add ground beef and tomatoes, cook 8 to 10 minutes, breaking into 1/2-inch crumbles and stirring occasionally.
Season with remaining 1/4 tsp of salt. Remove from heat and stir in peas.
Cook's Tip: Cooking times are for fresh or thoroughly thawed ground beef. Ground beef should be cooked to an internal temperature of 160°F. Color is not a reliable indicator of ground beef doneness.
Spread beef mixture in even layer in skillet.
Spread cauliflower mixture evenly over beef mixture.
Place skillet on cooking grid. Grill for 12-15 minutes or until the cauliflower is golden brown.
Remove and cool slightly.
Serve with lemon wedges.
