Riced Cauliflower Mac and Cheese
Serves: 1-2
​
Ingredients
-
10 oz bag frozen riced cauliflower
-
1 tsp garlic powder
-
1/2 tsp paprika
-
1 tsp salt
-
1 tbsp 1/3 less fat cream cheese
-
1 tbsp unsweetened almond and coconut creamer (I like Nut Pods best)
-
1/4 cup shredded Mexican blend cheese
Instructions
-
Heat a large pan over medium heat and spray with avocado oil.
-
Add the frozen cauliflower rice and cook for 7 minutes, or until its completely thawed. Make sure the pan is hot so that as your cauliflower thaws it doesn't get soggy.
-
Sprinkle in the garlic powder, paprika, and salt. Mix well to combine.
-
Push the cauliflower to the outer edges of your pan to create a well.
-
Add the cream cheese and creamer to your well and give it a stir to melt the cream cheese a little bit before mixing it in with the cauliflower.
-
Once the cauliflower is coated with the cream cheese mixture, sprinkle in the shredded cheese and stir until everything is melted and combined.
