Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Make the Cauliflower Rice . Using a food processor grind the fresh cauliflower until it is rice size.
  2. Steam or Microwave for 5 Minutes.
  3. Use a strainer if necessary to press out any addition liquid. Set Aside.
  4. Sautee the onion and garlic in the olive in a frying pan.
  5. Add zucchini cook for 3 minutes.
  6. Add rice , salt & pepper, cream and broth.
  7. Cook until it starts to reduce approximately 8 min, add parm. cheese; stir.
  8. Voila, your done. Very easy. I like to toss some fresh chopped Italian (Flat Leaf) Parsley right on top before serving. This makes a great hearty main course dish. Very Low Carb.
  9. Substitutions: I like to mix it up and use different vegetables, or add meat like shrimp or chicken. Just keep all the basics the same, try making it with asparagus or mushrooms.
