Here I thought I was so creative thinking; why can’t I use cauliflower to make rice pudding since we make rice out of cauliflower?
Me, being curious I looked it up and darn, someone has already thought of it. But this won’t stop me; I created my own low carb rice pudding recipe and am very happy with the results. Raisins were added but to keep the carb count down just eliminate them.
I took a warm dish of cauliflower rice pudding over to my neighbor; they had no idea that this was cauliflower they thought it was a mushier rice. They were very impressed.
This is a great low carb dessert; I hope you give it a try!
