I used Green Giant Riced Cauliflower. It comes frozen in a bag. So convenient!
I just open it and add it directly to the skillet.
No cutting, processing, or steaming beforehand required. It’s genius!
And less clean up too!!

‘Tis the time of year to start thinking about Thanksgiving cooking, Holiday shopping, and maybe making travel plans.
But those things happen in conjunction with our regular schedule.
Kids are still in school, homework needs to be done, and our jobs are equally stressful and demanding (at least mine is).
That means less time to plan dinner weekly menus.
Instead, we rely on leftovers and eating out. Which leads to cheating on our diet, and spending more money than we planned for.
I’m sure I’m not alone.
This is why I love making this one pot Curried Riced Cauliflower With Shrimp.
It’s quick to assemble, not a lot of prep required. It’s healthy, low-carb, low-fat, paleo, and ready in 20 minutes or less.
The secret to sticking to a healthy diet? —> Adding tons of flavor and spices to your dishes. No more boring chicken, and bland veggies.
Use those spice bottles you have lying around in the pantry and create unique combinations. For this dish, I used curry, cumin, and smoked paprika.
Next time I’ll try Turmeric and Za’atar. If you’re not a fan of shrimp, you can substitute for cubed chicken or beef.
The great thing about this recipe is that is super customizable.

I have used cauli for mash a lot but never used it as rice. I am mighty glad I happened upon this recipe to give it a whirl. It is seriously delicious…. I just added a few more veg and some turmeric. Will definitely make this again.
Glad you liked it Lisa! and is super quick to whip up! My kids had no idea they were eating cauliflower 😉
This was a 5 star for us. Only change was I added turmeric. My Mom, who I cook for on a regular basis said this was one of the best meals I’ve made for her, and it’s a one pot 15 minute meal. Can’t get better than that.
Thanks for the feedback Jamie! Turmeric sounds like the perfect spice to go with this dish
Delicious, I just made it today, thanks for sharing your faboulous and delicious recipes, they not only tastes good are also very healthy, perfect for a keto low carb life style.
I am glad you liked it Maria! this one is a weekly staple in my household
Hello Tiffany!! What is a serving size for this like a coup?
About 3/4 cup each!
I can’t make this because the sodium is almost 1,000 mg… That is way too high for my family… But, it sure looks delicious! Thank you for sharing
You can lower the sodium by substituting a few ingredients
How do you reduce the sodium?
Use fresh cauliflower and homemade chicken stock (or store-bought low or no sodium one)
For some reason I can’t read the actual recipe. Would love to try!! Any suggestions?
I apologize, I am fixing the glitch asap
I’m so excited to try this out tonight, but I’m not able to find the full actual recipe on the page. Could you help me out with that?
Hi, the problem has been resolved. Sorry for the inconvenience. You should be able to the recipe now.
Does frozen shrimp work with this? If so, do I cook this along with the frozen cauliflower and everything else?
Yes Eva! It workes just fine. Add it at the beggining
