Cauliflower Risotto
My whole life, I've hated cauliflower in all it's forms, so much that I even tried to put it in a pastry. I hate wasting food, and if I was not planning to eat the vegetable, I at least wanted to mask the flavor as much as possible so that it would not go to waste.
HOWEVER, I've discovered the only way I can eat and enjoy it. Which is why I would like to share with all who hate it, so they can GIVE CAULIFLOWER A SECOND CHANCE.
I would like for you to know that this Cauliflower Risotto is a faux Risotto, since it contains no rice. Still, it should not be a reason to deter you from trying it. ALSO, this is low carb, so you can now give yourself a pat on the back!
