Cauliflower again?!

The cauliflower industry must make all their money in January because it's the month of resolutions.  I am trying to eat less potatoes, rice and pasta so obviously cauliflower is the answer.  I even picked up a bag of riced cauliflower on sale so it saved me a step in preparation.  This recipe was good.  I've made it before and I'll make it again... probably next January!

Cauliflower rice, sea bass and sautéed spinach

Cauliflower Rice (from Whole 30 cookbook)

1 large head cauliflower, cut into florets
3 Tbs butter (or ghee if following Whole 30 diet)
1/2 onion, finely chopped
1 carrot, peeled and finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 Tbs minced cilantro
salt & pepper

Place half the cauliflower florets into food processor and pulse 15-20 times or until it looks like rice.  Repeat with remaining florets and set aside.

In large skillet, melt butter over medium heat then add onion and carrot.  Cook until onion is translucent, about 2-3 minutes.  Stir in garlic and cook about 1 minute.  Add riced cauliflower and mix.  Add chicken broth and cover the pan with a lid to steam for 10 minutes or to desired consistency.  Remove pan from heat and add cilantro.  Salt and pepper to taste.
