Cauliflower rice is a nutrient dense, low carb way to add volume to your meals without adding extra calories. The fiber and water content of cauliflower fills you up, allowing you to feel satisfied with smaller portions. Ellie Krieger brings us this recipe from her new book, Whole in One. It’s a one-pot dish, super easy to make with minimal clean-up and best of all, it’s hits the sweet spot where delicious meets fast and healthy. The only modifications I made to her recipe was to add 1 teaspoon of dried tarragon for extra flavor and I squeezed out the excess moisture from the cauliflower rice before cooking it. Enjoy!

What is a decent substitute for 1% milk… or will all the non dairy subs ruin the taste ….

Great question. I think almond milk would be fine.
