Process

Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Rice the veggies: Use a food processor to pulse the cauliflower florets and broccoli into rice-sized grains. For the easiest way, you can also use a cheese grater or buy pre-riced veggies from the store.
Sautu00e9 the aromatics: Heat 2 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, cooking until fragrant.
Cook the rice: Toss the riced cauliflower, broccoli, and bell pepper into the skillet. Season with basil, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender. Tip: Add a splash of chicken broth for extra flavor or creaminess.
Serve: Top with a squeeze of lemon juice, some parmesan cheese, or even roasted green beans as a side.

Notes

Adjusting Texture: If the cauliflower or broccoli rice feels too wet, pat it dry with a kitchen towel to remove excess moisture for a fluffier texture. Frozen Veggies: You can use frozen cauliflower or broccoli rice, but be sure to thaw and squeeze out extra water before cooking. Cheesy Variation: For a creamy version, mix in parmesan cheese, cream cheese, or shredded cheddar after cooking. Herb Swaps: Feel free to replace basil and thyme with oregano or parsley for a different flavor profile. Cooking Tip: Don’t overcrowd the skillet—cook in batches if needed to ensure the rice stays light and doesn’t turn mushy. Serving Ideas: Pair this dish with grilled chicken, shrimp, or tofu for a complete meal. It’s also great with lamb or fish for a Mediterranean-inspired dinner. Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to a month. Reheat in a skillet over medium heat for the best results.
