Microwave Cauliflower Rice Recipes

EASY MICROWAVE CAULIFLOWER RICE RECIPE

Steps:

• Wash the cauliflower with cold water and use paper towels to dry it. Remove all greens.
• If using a box grater, cut the cauliflower into large chunks and use the medium-sized holes to grate it into pieces the size of rice. If using a food processor, cut the florets into 2-3 inch pieces, and grate the cauliflower.
• Transfer the rice to a large paper towel or kitchen towel, squeezing to remove any excess moisture. This process will prevent your rice from becoming soggy when cooked.
• In a large microwave-safe bowl, add cauliflower rice, diced carrots, and peas. Cover with a lid or plastic wrap and cook on high for 2 minutes.
• Beat the eggs in another bowl, and add it on top of the cauliflower rice. (Don't mix at this point.)
• Cover with the lid or plastic wrap, and microwave on high for 45 seconds (the eggs will be half-cooked at this point).
• Mix the egg with the cauliflower rice and other vegetables. Microwave for another 45-60 seconds until eggs are fully cooked.
• Season with salt, pepper, and optional sesame oil. Mix well.
• Sprinkle with chopped green onions. Serve and enjoy!

MICROWAVE CAULIFLOWER RICE

Steps:

• Remove the green leaves from the bottom of the cauliflower, leaving the stem.
• Cut the cauliflower into quarters.
• Take one quarter and cut into large chunks. Put into a food processor and pulse 5-6 times until the cauliflower resembles rice.
• Dump the cauliflower into a large bowl.
• Repeat steps 3 and 4 for the other 3 portions of cauliflower.
• Spoon the riced cauliflower into 3 quart sized freezer bags. Place in the freezer until ready to use.
• When ready to eat, remove from the freezer and break the riced cauliflower apart with your fingers or drop it on the counter a few times to break it up.
• Dump into a microwave safe bowl and cover with a lid. Microwave on high for 5 to 6 minutes. Let stand for 1 minute before serving. Season as desired
