Recipe Summary Roasted Cauliflower "Rice"
Cauliflower rice is a great low-calorie dish to have in your arsenal especially if you are eating low-carb. Super low in carbs, yet such a satisfying dish you will forget it's made from a vegetable and not a grain.

2) better texture.Ingredients | Cauliflower Rice Lasagnacooking spray2 heads cauliflower, cut into 1/2-inch pieces1 ½ tablespoons avocado oil¾ teaspoon salt, dividedDirectionsPreheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
