Vegan Greek Cauliflower Rice
Hello & Happy Monday
If there is one concept I’ve become completely enamored with over time, it’s cauliflower rice! Just like any vegan recipe, cauliflower rice can be a complete dud if not done right. You have to pack on the flavor and texture or it will disappoint.
this vegan Greek Cauliflower Rice does not!!
In addition to cauliflower being a great way to mix it up in the kitchen, it packs more fiber and nutrients than the traditional rice or grain, making it much more filling! If you know me, you know I love all things greek! I’m not quite sure what it is, but the flavors just blend seamlessly together and it’s all about the veggies!!
What’s fab about this dish, is everything! It’s quick, easy, affordable, veggie and flavor packed, light but filling, the dressing ties it all in together, it’s perf for any season, can easily be made in bulk, perf for entertaining and it’s the perfect dish to pair with whatever protein you like.
