The Protective Potential of Herbs
Just like traditional rice, adding herbs to cauliflower rice makes it taste delicious and adds health preserving benefits.
Turmeric is full of immune-supporting antioxidants to help fight free radical damage. This tea blend also has hints of cinnamon and ginger flavor, adding digestion support and blood sugar balancing properties.
To boost the flavor and aroma of this rice, fresh ginger and garlic are sautéed in olive oil until fragrant. Garlic may be beneficial in providing overall cardiovascular support. Olive oil adds healthy fats to keep you feeling full and support healthy brain function.
Other great herbs to add to cauliflower rice include:
- Ground cumin
- Fresh chopped cilantro
- Fresh chopped basil
- Curry powder
- Fennel seed

- A box grater can be used instead of a food processor.
