Ingredients

  • 2 pounds cauliflower cut into large pieces
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup fresh cilantro chopped
  • ¼ cup fresh squeezed lime juice

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Add the cauliflower to a food processor and pulse until it forms a consistency similar to rice.
  2. Add the olive oil to a large skillet on the stove over medium heat.
  3. Add the cauliflower rice and salt, cover and cook for 5-6 minutes. Remove the lid and stir in the cilantro and lime juice.

Notes

  • When adding the cauliflower to the food processor, only add enough to fill it approximately half way. Pulse the cauliflower in the food processor, remove the cauliflower rice, then pulse the remainder of the cauliflower in batches until it has all been riced.
