I have cut out all rice from my diet. One of the things I struggled with was find a good alternative for recipes like stir fry. Or having a side dish for my Mexican dishes. But then I found cauliflower rice.
Cauliflower rice has very little of the cauliflower rice flavor and is textured just like al dente rice.
All you need is a food processor, microwave and a head of cauliflower. Clean and break up the head of cauliflower.
Start feeding the cauliflower through the shredding blade on your food processor.
Microwave it in a covered dish, do not add water! Cook on high for about 4 minutes and then let sit for about 5 minutes. You can play with the timing to get your perfect texture.
You can change up the flavor by adding seasoning, olive oil, sesame oil, butter, and more. I like serving cauliflower rice with:
- Spicy Turkey Bake
- Enchilada Chicken
- Grilled Chicken & Fruit Kabobs
- Coconut Chicken with Strawberry & Pineapple Salsa
This is a way to enjoy the texture of the rice without cheating on the low carb diet.
