  • If craving a rice texture, choose riced cauliflower or konjac rice instead

PREPARATION SUGGESTIONS

KETO SWAP: CAULIFLOWER RICE

Pulse cauliflower into rice-sized pieces; sauté in *Butter or olive oil with garlic and salt for 5–7 minutes. Similar texture, a fraction of the carbs*.

KETO SWAP: KONJAC RICE

Rinse well, then dry-sauté to remove moisture. Finish with sesame oil or herb butter. Works as a low-carb base for curries and stir-fries.
