Ingredients
- 1 head of cauliflower cut into florets
- ⅓ cup fresh chopped cilantro
- 2 tablespoons grass-fed butter unsalted
- juice of 2 small limes (or 1 big)
- Zest of 2 small limes (or 1 big)
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Add a small amount of the cauliflower florets to the bowl of a food processor and pulse until you get rice-sized pieces. Remove and add to a bowl, while you process the next batch. Continue the process until all the florets have been riced.
- Melt the butter in a large skillet on medium heat and add in the riced cauliflower. Sauté for about 5 minutes, or until it reaches your desired texture (I like mine with a little bite to it).
- Remove from the heat and mix in the cilantro, salt, pepper, lime juice and zest. Store leftovers in the fridge for a few days or freeze.
