Ingredients
  

  • 1 medium-sized head of cauliflower or 1 store-bought cauliflower rice bag
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil/butter or coconut oil for a little twist
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder or fresh minced garlic if you feel fancy
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley optional, but it adds a lovely pop!
  • If you’re low on time the store-bought cauliflower rice is a total lifesaver. And if you don’t have olive oil, any neutral cooking oil will do the trick!

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Cauliflower: If you're starting with a whole head, remove the leaves and stem. Cut it into smaller florets and toss ‘em in a food processor. Pulse until the bits look like rice. Then, you get that satisfying time—woohoo!
  • Heat It Up: In a large skillet, heat your olive oil over medium heat. Wait for it to shimmer – it's time to take things to the next level!
  • Sauté the Cauliflower Rice: Add in the cauliflower rice, sprinkle the garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir well to coat everything evenly. Now comes the fun part—keep stirring it around!
  • Cook Away: Cook for about 5-7 minutes until tender but not mushy. Taste test to see if it needs more seasoning. Adding extra garlic or some chili flakes could be fun!
  • Garnish: Once done, sprinkle with fresh parsley (if you’re using it) and give it one last gentle stir. Voilà!
