Cauliflower is one of those amazingly versatile foods that can be prepared in so many different ways. One of the most useful ways to eat it is to make riced cauliflower. Riced cauliflower has fewer carbs and more nutrients than traditional white rice. It’s also fairly mild in flavor, which makes it an ideal replacement for those who are trying to stay healthy!
And if riced cauliflower is your thing, stick around for some delicious suggestions!
