PREPARATION SUGGESTIONS
KETO SWAP: CAULIFLOWER RICE
Pulse cauliflower into rice-sized pieces; sauté in *Butter or olive oil with garlic and salt for 5–7 minutes. Similar texture, a fraction of the carbs*.
KETO SWAP: KONJAC RICE
Rinse well, then dry-sauté to remove moisture. Finish with sesame oil or herb butter. Works as a low-carb base for curries and stir-fries.
