Spanish Cauliflower Rice (to eat with Mexican Food)

Ingredients
4 servings
Instructions
- Slice the cauliflower in half, then in half again. Cut off the stem from each quarter and discard. (see photos)
- Chop the cauliflower into 1-inch pieces. Place 1/3 of the cauliflower into a food processor and pulse in 1-second intervals until it looks like rice. Remove to a bowl and repeat twice more (I usually do 3 batches per head of cauliflower).
- Peel a couple carrots and roughly chop. Add to the food processor and pulse again until it looks the same as the cauliflower.
- Meanwhile, in a large skillet melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the chicken bouillon and stir together. When it is hot, add the cauliflower and carrots.
- Add salt, chili powder, and cumin.
- Stir occasionally for about 7-10 minutes, or until the veggies are tender.
- Slowly stir in the tomato sauce. You don't have to add the entire can. Just until it looks good to you.
- Cook for another 2 minutes. Add more seasonings to taste.
- Remove from heat, sprinkle with cilantro, and serve hot!
