Cauliflower Spanish Rice (LATC)

MooMoo Jackson Style

Ingredients:

1 16oz bag Cauliflower Crumbles (Cauliflower chopped into tiny pieces. I purchased mine at Target in the veggie section)

1/4 White Onion roughly chopped

2 cloves fresh Garlic minced

Splash of Olive Oil (a small amount just to saute onion, garlic, and Cauliflower crumbles in)

1 tsp Goya Adobo All Purpose Seasoning [without Pepper, zero calories] (I use this in place of Chicken Bullion because it's zero calories and less sodium but has great flavor. I purchase mine in the spice aisle at Target)

1 tsp Garlic Powder

1 tsp McCormick California Style Onion Powder (I like this because it's a blend of dried/ground white and green onion and parsley and it's really yummy. I purchase it from Stater Brothers in the spice aisle)

1 8oz can Tomato Sauce

1/2 of a 10oz can of Original Rotel drained (diced tomatoes and green chilies found near tomato sauce at grocery store)

Cilantro chopped (for garnish)

Instructions:

1. In a HOT saucepan (preheated) add a splash of Olive Oil, onion, garlic, and the whole bag of Cauliflower Crumbles.

2. Sprinkle all the seasonings into the pan then stir and saute everything together just until the Cauliflower Crumble becomes a LITTLE tender (but NOT mushy)! Approx. 2 minutes.

Note: You DON'T want mushy Cauliflower Rice so pay attention to it!

3. Add the tomato sauce and Rotel then stir it all together (be careful not to mash up the Cauliflower Crumbles....you want it to remain the consistency of rice). Cook it only long enough to heat up the tomato sauce and Rotel in it. Approx. 1-2 more minutes.

Note: Only add HALF of the can of Rotel and make sure it is drained first.

4. Garnish with Cilantro and ENJOY!
