How To Make “Riced Cauliflower”

After I started making my Cauliflower Pizza Crust, I realized that there are many more things that I could do with riced cauliflower. Basically it can be used in place of rice for pretty much any recipe.

Take a head of cauliflower and cut it up, throwing away the stem and core.Cut the rest into small pieces. Divide into four batches.

Put one batch at a time into food processor and hit pulse until cauliflower resembles rice. I usually end up removing the riced stuff and adding in the bigger pieces if they didn’t break down the first time.

Measure out two cups worth and put into freezer container.

I do not completely defrost the rice when I need it. I take it out of the freezer approximately ten minutes before I need it. Then throw it right into a preheated frying pan with a small amount of coconut oil and saute slightly(two minutes). If you already have other veggies cooking, just add cauliflower in with them 🙂

Riced cauliflower also works great in any salad asking for riced. Its a great grain free option!
