Recipe Tips
Everyone has a different taste pallet. I suggest adding spices based on how you like food to taste. Vary the ingredient amounts based on your personal preference!
Preparing Cauliflower Rice
- Pick a large head of cauliflower.
- Remove the outside leaves and rinse with water.
- Cut the head of cauliflower in half. Cut each half into quarters. Cut out the woody internal stem so you are left with the cauliflower florets.
- Chop into 1-2 inch pieces.
- Continue to chop or grate the cauliflower into rice-sized pieces or you can process in a food processor. When adding to a food processor, only add 1/3 of the cauliflower at a time. This will help keep the final rice a more consistent size. Pulse cauliflower several times until it is approximately the size of rice.
