Cauliflower "Rice"

This recipe will give you and your kids a whole new appreciation for cauliflower. Seriously, try it out.

What You’ll Need…

1Head Cauliflower

1 Tablespoon Olive Oil

¾ Cup Water

½ Tablespoon Butter

½ Cup Grated Cheese (Your choice) [Optional]

Pepper (To taste)

Garlic Powder (To taste)

Start out by pulling off the leaves and cutting the stem off of the cauliflower so that it rests evenly on your cutting board. Carefully cut the cauliflower so that pellets come off and begin to resemble rice. Do this for the entire head. You may need eventually use your fingers to pull some of the florets off and then carefully cut them into very small pieces.

Once your cauliflower has been cut pour the olive oil into a large skillet over medium heat and allow it to head up. Once the oil is hot add the cauliflower, pepper, and garlic powder.

Periodically add water a ¼ at a time so that the “rice” doesn’t stick and also to help it cook.

Stirring occasionally, allow the cauliflower to cook for about ten minutes until it is no longer crunchy, but also not mushy.

Once the cauliflower is cooked, turn off the heat and mix in butter and cheese.

This is great as a side with chicken or any other protein that you would eat rice with.

Enjoy!
