About

You’ll never miss traditional rice once you try this fiber-filled cauliflower rice recipe! The addition of butternut squash, kale and walnuts really amps up the flavor and the heartiness of this tasty side dish.

If you’re new to Cauliflower Rice, start by watching this How-To Video that I made on shredding the cauliflower. The concept is really simple: we take a head of cauliflower, cut it into little florets and then run it through a food processor that has the grating attachment on. This shredded cauliflower has the look and consistency of traditional, white rice, while being lower in carbs, calories and filled with vitamins and minerals.

There are literally endless ways to dress up cauliflower rice, and I never seem to tire of coming up with new variations. Here are my favorites thus far…
