Cauliflower Rice_Rubio's

Cauliflower rice is a popular side dish among folks on the keto diet and for those who want gluten-free options. Although I don’t have gluten sensitivities, nor am I on the keto diet, I do like the idea of increasing my intake of veggies as opposed to carbs. You’ve seen cauliflower rice in the grocery stores, and you may have seen it offered at a few restaurants.
