The last few months I’ve been using cauliflower rice in a lot of different recipes. Salads, veggie-and-protein bowls, falafel plates, smoothies…

Usually I make it on the stovetop, but one day I wanted to see how it came out if I made it in the microwave. Turned out it was stupid-easy and came out great! Here’s the recipe.

Cauliflower Rice in the Microwave

Ingredients: 

• 10 ounce container of pre-riced cauliflower or 1 large head of cauliflower, cut into florets and pulsed in a food processor until it looks like rice
• 1-2 tablespoons water

Directions: 

1. Place cauliflower and water into a large glass bowl with a lid.
2. Cover and Microwave on HIGH for 3-4 minutes or until cauliflower is soft but not mushy.
