Getting a little tired of plain cauliflower rice? Try these delicious and creative variations. All recipes are low carb, keto, and many are paleo friendly too!
If you’re going to go on a healthy low carb diet, you’d better make friends with cauliflower pretty darn quick. It’s going to be one of the things that saves your sanity. Because embarking on a low carb diet means giving up many filling comfort foods like pasta, rice, and potatoes and that can be really tough for some folks. But good old cauliflower, that funny white bumpy thing that you rarely gave much thought to before, is going to make your low carb transition a whole lot easier. It can be a really great replacement for all of the above, and it’s a whole lot kinder to your waist line and your blood sugar.
Rice has become such a staple in the American diet, it can feel like it’s in everything. So many of the most popular cuisines are heavy on the rice: Mexican, Asian, Indian. Even Italian food has plenty of rice. It’s a hard one for people to give up. While cauliflower rice isn’t exactly the same, it really does help low carb dieters enjoy many of their favourite foods again. And a big bonus is that you don’t have that uncomfortably full feeling you get with real rice. Cauliflower rice is almost infinitely adaptable and I find new ways to use it almost every day. So try a few of these delicious and creative low carb recipes on for size!

I keep meaning to try out this cauliflower rice! This post makes me want to do it even more!
I love it. If you haven’t tried the frozen cauliflower rice from Trader Joe’s, it’s pretty amazing for those nights when using the food processor seems like too much work! Thanks for including me!
Thank you so much for including my recipe! These all look so good!
Thank you for including my Buffalo Chicken and Broccoli Bowls! So many great dishes here, sharing this!
Much appreciated! Your recipe looks delicious!
I am attempting a cauliflower pizza crust this evening, wish me luck, lol
Thank you a thousand times! All of these recipes sound fabulous and I can’t wait to try them all!👍👍❤️
Took me awhile to leave a comment but I wanted to try so many of these recipes that I have been busy, busy. Cauliflower has been cheap recently at my local Asian food market so I have been buying a lot. I use a Presto salad shooter to make it into “rice” and have tried Indian spiced and Chinese fried and even made up my own recipe for “dirty” cauliflower rice and they are all good and make me want to try more.
My hubby has taken leftovers to work for lunch and now 3 of his coworkers are trying “low-carb”!
Nicely done!
