Do you love rice? I LOOOVE rice! Unfortunately most of us know what happened the last time I tried to cook it 
Wasn’t too pretty and I’m not planning on making it again anytime soon; however, I didn’t say anything about FAUX rice!
It’s pretty much that simple. Just take Cauliflower, a grater and start grating away to make little faux rice flakes.
I sauteed a little bit of diced onion and added the cauliflower with:
- splash of soy sauce
- pepper
- garlic powder
- chili powder
It really only took a few minutes–it cooked while my Tilapia was in the oven.
I’m not quite sure why I chose to put all the food on a plate that is almost the exact same color–I swear there’s actually food on THERE! 
And the green veggies in the background, those are Okra fries, YUM!
I’m completely OBSESSED with this “rice”–it really didn’t taste like Cauliflower at all. I mean I love it anyway, but it really did taste like the real thing to me…I even tricked The Boo!
I may or may not have gone back for seconds….

Tonight’s gym visited consisted of:
-
20 minutes stairmaster
-
20 minutes treadmill
Complete sweaty mess and loved every second of it! 
Before I go to bed I’m going to try and get in some core exercises, but for right now I’m enjoying a cup of Honey Vanilla Chamomile Tea
And waiting for my Spaghetti Squash to cool down so I can fork it out!
Hope everyone has a great night!
I love this idea of faux rice, need to try it!!!
I tried this before, and it didn’t go so well.
Maybe because I hate cauliflower? But everyone said it didn’t taste like cauliflower.
Wow! Cauliflower rice — I have never seen that before. Pure genius
I love cauliflower AND rice, so I will definitely be giving this one a try!
AWESOME idea! I do love me some white rice and could eat a whole chinese food container of it. However…I would not like how my body felt after I did that! Thanks for the creative alternative.

Hey Lady, I think I used to comment on your blog about 3-4 mos ago, then I lost track of you, maybe you switched URLs? anyway…I recently like 4 mos ago moved from San Diego to Phoenix. I wish I had known you back then, we coulda been healthy eaters together
i like it!
also, i think about you when i see the portland versions of that mug at starbucks
Great idea =)
Thanks for always giving us great ideas
You are a smart, smart girl my friend.
If I ever get in a food rut, I know where to come
Okay, this must be the most genius idea ever! I’m going to try it on the hubby and let you know how it works! He’s not a big cauliflower eater, but I wonder if he would enjoy it this way?
That’s freakin’ awesome! Looks delicious too! I’ve heard of mashed cauliflower, but not cauliflower rice. Love it! Have a great day, hun!
I love cauliflower “rice” and I agree it tastes so similar to the real thing! I like to stir fry up some veggies and make stir fried cauli-rice…yum!
I love this idea! I love cauliflower too! Looks awesome!
What a fantastic idea! Healthier than rice and probably has more flavor- YUM!
that rice idea is GENIUS!!! i’m for sure going to try this as soon as i get my hands on some cauliflower
love it!
Cauliflower rice … what a great idea!!
I HAVE to try this!!! Sounds amazing!
That’s insane. Probably the best a cauliflower can do. I am willing to give that veggie a second chance, having seen that.
ohhh i have seen mashed potatoes with cauliflower but never as rice! great idea. jicama is also a nice faux rice.
