As delicious as carbs are, sometimes you need to cut them out. I’m all for moderation so I would never tell you to give up those amazing carbs but if you are looking for a way to get away from the carbs for awhile then this recipe for Cilantro Lime Cauliflower Rice is perfect. I used a bag of pre-made rice that I bought. You can find already made rice here. However, if you want to make your own it is very easy. Just take one large cauliflower and break it into florets. Rinse them well and pat dry. Then place them into a food processor and pulse until it’s the consistency of rice. Then you are ready to go!
