This Coconut Lime Cauliflower Rice is one of my all-time favorite vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, and fertility supportive side dishes.
When optimizing your diet for fertility, nutrient density is vital. But let’s face it, easy and delicious is a bonus! This Coconut Lime Cauliflower Rice recipe blends healthy fats (coconut milk), hormone balancing & fiber-filled vegetables (cauliflower), and supports natural detoxification (cilantro). Therefore, there’s no doubt, it’s a win all around!
It pairs perfectly with mango salsa covered fish. And if there is any leftover, the flavors are fantastic day two when the cilantro and lime have had time to permeate the cauliflower. So the next time you need to whip up a veggie, try this crowd favorite!
Coconut Lime Cauliflower Rice
Equipment
- Large Saucepan
- Microplaner (optional)
Ingredients
- 1 pound/head Riced Cauliflower, organic
- 1 Lime, organic
- 1/4 cup Cilantro, fresh, organic chopped
- 13.5 oz Coconut Milk, full-fat, organic in a can with a BPA-free lining
- Sea Salt, coarsely ground, to taste
- Ground Pepper, ground, to taste
Instructions
- Add the coconut milk to the saucepan. Stir to dissolve the milk solids in the liquid.
- Add the cauliflower rice to the coconut milk. Stir to disperse. Bring to a boil over medium to medium-high heat and allow to simmer until the cauliflower softens and the milk reduces to a creamy texture, ~10-15 minutes. Mine takes ~15 minutes because I use frozen cauliflower rice.
- While the cauliflower rice is cooking, zest the lime with a microplaner (optional), juice the lime, and chop the cilantro.
- When the cauliflower has softened and the mixture is a creamy consistency stir in the lime zest, lime juice, and cilantro. Season with pepper and sea salt to your liking. Enjoy!
