Green Cauliflower "Rice"



                                                 
 I ran across this recipe online and decided to give it a try.  It's interesting and simple enough to make.  The olive oil does add some flavor.  I topped mine with additional cilantro leaves and a little more lime juice.  It wasn't as green in color as the photo that's shown.  Using a food processor, I made my own crumbled cauliflower.


                                                     GREEN CAULIFLOWER “RICE”



Ingredients
  • 1 cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro leaves and stems
  • 1/2 cup coarsely chopped white onion
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 1 seeded jalapeo
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 pound fresh cauliflower crumbles or riced cauliflower (about 4 cups)
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
  • 3/8 teaspoon kosher salt
How to Make It
Step 1
Place coarsely chopped fresh cilantro leaves and stems, coarsely chopped white onion, garlic clove, and seeded jalapeño in a mini food processor; process until finely chopped and almost paste-like, stopping to scrape down sides as needed.
Step 2
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add fresh cauliflower crumbles or riced cauliflower (about 4 cups); cook, stirring occasionally, 3 minutes. Stir in cilantro mixture; cook, stirring occasionally, 2 minutes or to desired texture. Stir in fresh lime juice and kosher salt.
