Ingredients

• 1 head Cauliflower
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 1 medium Red bell pepper
• 1 medium Zucchini
• 2 cups Spinach
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Cilantro
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Cut the cauliflower into florets and pulse in a food processor until it resembles rice grains. Do this in small batches to avoid overprocessing.

Step 2

Mince the garlic. Dice the red bell pepper and zucchini into small pieces. Roughly chop the spinach and cilantro.

Step 3

Heat olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the diced red bell pepper and zucchini to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes until slightly softened.

Step 5

Stir in the cauliflower rice and turmeric powder, ensuring even distribution of the yellow color. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cauliflower is tender but not mushy.

Step 6

Add the chopped spinach and cook for another 2 minutes until wilted.

Step 7

Season with salt, ground black pepper, and lemon juice. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Step 8

Remove from heat and top with freshly chopped cilantro before serving.

Step 9

Serve hot as a standalone dish or as a side to your favorite keto-friendly protein.
