whenever i see something new at the grocery store or restaurant, i just have to try it in my kitchen. one day, i saw a pack of cauliflower rice, i scanned through my thoughts for ways to highlight the ingredient’s natural texture & flavor…… ah-haa! risotto it is!
rich vegetable cream, less filling, and… way easier than the original rice risotto. simple but very satisfying. Yummm! it definitely passed my “WOW” factor challenge.
