Chef's Notes

Tips & To make cauliflower rice from fresh cauliflower, cut into florets and pulse in a food processor until you have rice-sized pieces. Alternately, use a sharp knife to chop into small pieces.
This recipe will likely work fine with frozen cauliflower rice, though I haven't tested it myself as we prefer the flavor of fresh.
This dish comes out very thick and creamy. Feel free to add more cauliflower rice or less cheese for a less indulgent dish.
