Easy to make Cauliflower Rice

Easy to make cauliflower rice

For dinner we added cauliflower rice to our "Keto" meal. I used the following recipe which was easy and provided great results. I only made enough for three people, which was about half the cauliflower.

Ingredients:

• Cauliflower cut into large chunks 
• 2 tbsp of olive oil
• salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

Put large chucks of  cauliflower into a food processor. Pulse until the cauliflower bits are about the size of rice. Do not over process.

Heat olive oil in a frying pan and add cauliflower. Stir constantly for about five minutes. Salt and pepper to taste.

Serve hot with meat and other vegetables. It looks good and is tasty.

Grill time for vegetables

Grill gives fresh summertime vegetables an extra taste of yumminess. Coat vegetables with olive oil so they don't stick to the grill. Use a grill basket for smaller pieces.
