What if you don’t have a microwave. I want some bloody cauliflower rice you damn microwave possessing people!!!
No need to get hostile, just steam it
I just made the best tasting cauliflower rice with lime garlic and cilantro on the stove top in a frying pan, ahh died and when the cauliflower rice heaven !
Have to say this rice is wonderful!!!! It’s going to be our staple side :) so many flavors can be added – just yum yum! We microwaved the ‘rice’ with some shredded almonds then stirred in a little garlic butter, and salt and pepper!!! Delicious!!!!!
That sounds amazing :)
Wow!
haha, that’s all I have to say about this recipe.. I was on a time crunch, and stupidly started this at 7pm, so cut the time short on cooking it, but even then… WOW. it was absolutely delicious.
I added in some pineapples, since I don’t like spicy chili, and it still came out pretty awesome. Next time I make it, I’ll be sure to do it exactly to the recipe, but I already love it.
Tasty chili! However, as I grew up in Louisiana and lived in Texas for a number of years, I found that we needed to ramp up the spices to suit our taste. (And no, two onions are definitely not excessive! :-) ) I threw in a good bit of chili powder (didn’t measure, just guessed), a bit more salt and black pepper, and some Slap Ya Mama (tasty good Cajun seasoning), and we added more tomatoes. That worked for us. I love the way the cauliflower “rice” turned out – good way to get in extra veggies! I expect I’ll use that method of preparing the cauliflower for other recipes as well.
That sounds delish too
how many servings does this recipe make?
Jim it says 6-8 servings
ha. completely missed that. thx!
Love this recipe! It is so delicious!! I added a pinch of cinnamon to it today when I made it. Mmmmm-mmmm, good!
I’ll have to try that next time
Okay, here we are trying to be healthy and stuff, and you’re using the microwave? In 5 minutes, you could have sauteed that cauliflower rice in some coconut oil–just sayin’…
are you sure about 2 onions? that seems excessive.
I am positive lol, its my recipe haha
