Here are just a few health benefits of cauliflower that will make you add this superfood to your diet:

High in choline  – Cauliflower is a great source of choline, an essential nutrient we need for mood and memory. This means cauliflowers do their part in providing the brain with nutrients necessary to develop properly!

Rich in Sulforaphane – As with broccoli and cabbage, cauliflower also contains sulforaphane. Sulforaphane protects cells from DNA damage as well as inactivating carcinogens – meaning it helps prevent cancer!

How to Make Cauliflower Rice

In this post, I’m going to show you how to make cauliflower rice using a simple step-by-step guide. So let’s get started!

INGREDIENT LIST

  • 1 medium head cauliflower (yield 4 cups of cauliflower rice)
  • salt & pepper, to taste
  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil

PREPARATION

  1. Cut the cauliflower into a rice-like shape. You can use any of the following methods:
  • Cheese Grater
  • Food processor
  • Blender
  • Knife – Yes, just a knife and a few minutes of your time chopping up those florets into tiny pieces.

2. To remove any excess moisture and avoid making your dish soggy, transfer the caulifower rice to a paper towel

3. In a large skillet, add 1 Tbsp of Olive oil and heat over medium-high. Then put in your cauliflower rice for about 5 – 8 minutes total cooking time and season with salt and pepper.

BEST TIPS

  • Be careful not to overcook
  • No need to cover it to avoid making it too soft and wet.
  • You can also add garlic or coconut aminos for more flavors
