The texture of cauliflower makes it the perfect low-carb substitute for rice in this deliciously rich and flavorful dish that I was inspired to make by Fuel my Smile, Dr. Michelle Hanover
This is my slightly adapted version using ingredients that I had in my house and it came out so good!
It’s super creamy and packed with my favorite springtime vegetables – asparagus, mushrooms and peas. Serve as a side with baked chicken breasts or with a salad for a meatless Monday meal. Give this easy, quick, all in one pan recipe that your whole family will love a try!
