Not only is it one of my favorite recipes, it’s also really quick and easy to make thanks to frozen cauliflower rice. You’re simply going to microwave it according to the package instructions, and then sauté the cooked cauliflower rice for a few minutes with butter, minced garlic, and parmesan. It takes less than 10 minutes to whip up and your entire family will love it!
This warm and cheesy cauliflower rice pairs really well with just about any meal including bbq, chicken, steak, or seafood. I even make it to eat alone as a last minute vegetarian lunch or dinner idea.
I always have frozen cauliflower rice on hand, so I make this recipe often to go with rotisserie chicken on busy weeknights.
This cheesy “rice” requires just a few ingredients, yet is packed full of flavor. If you like garlic, then you are going to LOVE this healthy white veggie loaded with parmesan cheese. I additionally season it with a dash of salt and pepper, as well as a few red pepper flakes for spice.
