{Whole30} Cauliflower Rice - The Not So Creative Cook
This cauliflower rice is a great and healthier substitute for white/brown rice. It’s perfect for stews, stir fry dishes, eggs and lot more. “I will start my diet tomorrow.” That’s always the statement I’ve been telling myself for years. I didn’t even know what tomorrow means anymore. 😛 I’ve maintained my weight for years which is still overweight compared to my height. I didn’t care. Until one day, the scale just slapped me with additional 8.8 lbs. I had to buy new clothes. I blamed the inflammation I have in my body due to RA. My ex-colleague laughed at me when I told her “You know what? I think I am heavier now because of this inflammation.” I think I was waiting for her to agree with me, but she just laughed. 2017 came and no diet happened. Just one month ago, I’ve finally decided that I should really start. On the same day of thinking about starting (and I am still not sure if that will be like final final), the Whole-30 Program just popped out from my brain. When I checked the rules of the program, my first reaction was “Seriously? NO SUGAR, NO BREAD, NO RICE.. No ALMOST EVERYTHING I ENJOY?’ Knowing myself, I wouldn’t ever take a break from having sugar, rice and bread! No freaking way! But something just pushed me to do it. And I am very proud to say that I completed one round of the Whole-30 Program. I will continue the story about my experiences on the next post as I don’t wanna bore you with a long post. Now, let’s talk about this Cauliflower Rice… I never thought, in my entire life, that I would trouble myself with making this rice. I would always tell myself “Why do I have to try or make it when I can cook white rice? That goes way better with stews and all.” I ate my words, I know. Cooking white rice in a rice cooker may look easier, but this cauliflower rice doesn’t take that much of energy. Plus, it’s healthier and also goes very well with stews, scrambled eggs, stir fry dishes and a lot more. This can be cooked with water or broth, but broth will make the rice tastier. I hope you’d try it, too, and let me know what you think. 😉 I am taking this healthy stuff at Fiesta Friday #161, co-hosted by Laura. Also, thanks to our amazing Angie for having this party for us every week. I wish you all a relaxing and fantastic weekend! Happy Fiesta Friday!
