If you are trying to shed the Circuit Breaker weight, then this Cauliflower Fried Rice recipe is just right for you. A cup of cauliflowers has 4 grams in carbs, making it an ideal rice alternative.
Cauliflower is a cruciferous vegetable like broccoli and Brussels sprouts. It is high in fibre, loaded with vitamins K, C, B6 and potassium.
If you can’t get a hand on a frozen bag of diced cauliflowers, you can always cut up a head of cauliflower into chunks and pulse them in a food processor for 2 to 3 minutes until it resembles rice.
