Trying to keep away from carbs? You’ll love this recipe! It’s not really rice, it’s cauliflower that has been through the food processor before getting cooked. I wouldn’t use it as a rice substitute in recipes such as stews or casseroles, but it’s definitely a good alternative to use as a side dish or a vegetarian meal in place of grains. I’ve tried cauliflower in many ways, I have made it into soup, I have pureed it and roasted it; but this new cooking method has had good reviews at home, so you should try it too! Especially if you’re into the paleo diet.
