Cilantro Lime Cauliflower Rice Recipe, Its Ingredients, Instructions

Rice with cauliflower and cilantro! When you want a carb-heavy dish without the added calories, (low-carb) cauliflower comes to the rescue. more room for healthy fats and proteins!

Furthermore, Cilantro Lime Cauliflower Rice tastes just like regular, authentic rice. you won’t be bashing me over the head with a skillet full of imaginary rice, I promise.

You would consume the entire dish right out of the pan before serving it to your family.

Nearly as good as fried rice, I used the word “nearly” because when you cook cauliflower rice, it takes on a crispy exterior texture and an interior texture that is soft and tender.

You’ll be replacing regular rice with THIS, and to give it even more flavor, add a generous squeeze of lime juice AND finely chopped cilantro (what we call coriander in Australia).

Maybe. I DO realize that not everyone enjoys cauliflower.

Sincerely, neither am I. However, I do like cauliflower in sauces or combined with other foods. like those Cauliflower Hash Brown Egg Cups with the Creamy Garlic Shrimp “Risotto”!

I also adore this cauliflower rice. Oh, right. Flavor, flavor, and more flavor.

First, process your cauliflower florets in batches.

Until they resemble rice, quinoa, or cuscus in appearance.

It should be fried with garlic, onions, scallions (or shallots), and lime juice. Hello, tastebuds!
