Put a full cauliflower in a food processor using the grater attachment until fine like rice or couscous then fry with finely chopped onions for a rice substitute x

    Defeinitely not "carb free". Per 100g of cauliflower, there's 4g of carbs.

    Oil is 100% fat. It's impossible to have fewer carbs than that.

    Give her a break. Definitely not carb free but certainly more a lot fewer carbs than rice. As for the frying, stir fry in a small amount of quality oil, like olive oil. Good idea...but not for me. I'm a distance runner, I NEED those carbs!

    But I use rice to get carbs...if I don't need any carbs, I don't eat it. You could just eat the cauliflower as is, right? I'm just confused. Is it fun because it looks like rice?

    Thank you! I am so tired of seeing all the posts on making cauliflower into something else. Bottom line is - IT IS STILL CAULIFLOWER! I don't mind cauliflower, so why take all the extra time to make it look like something it is not. Steamed with a few spices is fine with me. Raw is fine with me. But in the end - it is still just cauliflower!
