Ingredients 

  • 1 head Cauliflower

Equipment

  • Food Processor Or box grater

Instructions

Option 1: Use a food processor.

  • Add the cauliflower florets to the food processor bowl making sure it's not packed.
  • Press the "pulse" button on the food processor to break down the pieces further.

  • Continue to pulse the cauliflower until it's chopped into a size you like.

Option 2: Use a grater.

  • Just like grating cheese, slide the florets up and down the box grater. This leaves you with perfect rice-sized pieces but will take a little bit longer than busting out your food processor.
