Cauliflower Rice

I mentioned in my Stuffed Peppers post the other day that I would give you all the recipe for my Cauliflower “Rice.”   Around here, we call it Cauli Rice, and I’m super happy that my husband and children like to eat it as much as I do.  Cauli Rice is a tasty, nutritious, grain-free, alternative to white rice for those of us that follow a Primal or Paleo eating plan.  Works for the Atkins people too.

I’ve been making Cauliflower Rice for a while now.  I found out about it on a Yahoo Low Carb Group and posted my own recipe for Mexican Chicken and “Rice” back then.  My friend Kalyn over at Kalyn’s Kitchen has a fabulous looking recipe for “Cauliflower Rice” with Fried Onions and Sumac.  I actually like her post better than mine because she has tons of photos and how to tips along with her recipe, so head on over and check it out!

It’s hard to believe that The Gluten-Free Almond Flour Cookbook has been out for more than a year now! I’ve been reading through a lot of the reviews on Amazon and wanted to give thanks and highlight this review from Madeleine of Paris, France:

For people with celiac disease, baking is not always easy, results often not too pleasing and very often not too healthy either. This book addresses these 3 problems in a magnificent way. The recipes are super easy, the results absolutely delicious and the nutritional value outstanding. I reach for Elana’s recipes again and again. Friends and family prefer ‘her food’ over regular stuff. If you have never cooked before and don’t know where to begin, this book is a great place to start. For more experienced cooks, the book has a lot to offer as well: a lot of recipes for pie crusts, pizzas, breads etc etc that spark your own imagination and creativity. Do your family, your palate and your health a favour and buy this lovely book!

Wow. Thank you Madeleine for your complimentary words and favorable review!  I greatly appreciate it.
