Cauliflower Rice with Mushrooms and Parmesan

4.0
(5)

Great way to substitute a veggie in place of a rice side. The sauteed mushrooms and Parmesan really give the slightly firm cauliflower the punch of flavor it needs. Inspired by Dr. Mark Hyman's cauliflower rice recipe, but I put my own spin on it.
