Cauliflower Rice???

Its a bit of an oxymoron, isn't it?  Well, I'm here to tell you--its darn good!

I love to cook and I have a new cookbook, which means I have new, fun things to try.  This was one of them...Cauliflower Rice.

It was really much easier than I'd thought it would be. Cut the cauliflower in florets, pulse them in the Cuisinart to make them "rice-like," and you have rice!  Almost.  It looks like this:


At this point, you nuke whatever amount you plan to use for two minutes, then saute it with whatever other ingredients you like.  I used sesame oil and olive oil for the base along with onions, garlic and red peppers, salt and pepper.  It was really good!!


Quilting pics coming soon...I just had to share this though--hope you don't mind.

  1. Glad to see you back posting again! :-) That looks delicious. I will have to try it. DH loves cauliflower. I recently found a recipe for a cauliflower sauce. You can use it like a spaghetti sauce or a cream sauce. I think it was at tasty kitchen. com (affiliated with The Pioneer Woman's blog.) Hope all is well. Best wishes, Sara

  2. Thanks, Sara. I'm trying lots of new stuff--I even made Pad Thai last night for dinner. It was great!! We're eating more healthy so I'm experimenting a lot. Take care, Dory
