Lior and I have a thing in which once every few months we don’t carb for a couple of weeks. Not carbing is the expression we use that means we don’t eat carbs. No bread, no pasta, no potatoes – you get the point. The first time we didn’t carb was a few years ago and we get back to it whenever we feel we need it (summer is just around the corner!). Kind of a restart to the body.<\/p>\n\n\n

At first we didn’t really understand what we were supposed to eat. What does it mean without rice, without pasta? So with what? After all, carbs, besides being fulfilling and comforting and wonderful, carbs are also the basis we grew up on. Every meal I ate when I was a child consisted of a portion of protein (let say schnitzel), a portion of some sort of carbs (let say mashed potatoes) and vegetables, or a meal in which the carb was the basis, such as pasta in some sauce. But how do you make a meal without carbs?<\/p>\n\n\n

So this “not carbing” thing brings out wonderful things from the kitchen. Suddenly all meals consist of lots of vegetables, certain legumes, eggs and nuts. Lior and I are fussing around the kitchen, both of us cooking, really make the effort to put together a wonderful meal, a meal that will miss nothing. There is no easy solution such as a sandwich, if you want to eat you have to spend time in the kitchen😊.<\/p>\n\n\n

That’s why I’m so excited about this dish. Cauliflower rice, which is actually cauliflower that you pulse in a food processor, or grate in the wide side of a grater. It doesn’t really taste like rice, but it’s super super tasty dish, sooooo easy and quick to make, and tick all the boxes that carbs represents, both in the feeling you get from eating it and the functionality it holds – you can match the cauliflower rice almost to any sauce or topping and get a classic and satisfying meal.<\/p>\n\n\n
