Cauliflower Rice

by Editorial Staff

Cauliflower rice is a godsend for those on a healthy diet. Similar in appearance to rice or couscous, this vegetable side dish is much healthier with fewer calories, fewer carbs and sugars, and more fiber. It goes well with meat dishes, and by itself, it turns out to be very tasty when mixed with herbs and fried almonds. Also, cauliflower rice is a great way to introduce a healthy vegetable into the diet of children who, to put it mildly, do not like it. Mix it in half with regular boiled rice and serve as a side dish. Little fastidious will hardly notice that not all the rice on the plate is real.
