Cauliflower rice is a great low-calorie dish to have in your arsenal especially if you are eating low-carb. Super low in carbs, yet such a satisfying dish you will forget it's made from a vegetable and not a grain. There are two reasons I opted for roasted riced cauliflower in place of sauteed: 1) more flavor and 2) better texture.

- 2 heads cauliflower , cut into 1/2-inch pieces

French Fries all'Assassina (Assassin's French Fries)
French fries all'assassina, or assassin's French fries, are inspired by one of Italy's most unusual and delicious pasta recipes, spaghetti all'assassina. Intensely savory from caramelized tomato paste and cheese, with a sweet and sour note followed by a building, spicy heat from cayenne and pepper flakes, these fries are the complete opposite of one-note.
Chinese Sizzling Rice Soup
Chinese is one of my favorite cuisines to cook as well as eat. By cooking the rice before it is added to the soup, you will enjoy the crunchy texture with the other flavors in this delicious soup.
Elegant Fig Appetizers with Goat Cheese and Almonds
This is a combination of several fresh fig appetizer recipes. The flavors of fresh figs, tangy goat cheese, salty almonds, sweet honey, and balsamic vinegar contrast to make these a delicious and very pretty appetizer. Arrange figs in a circle, tops facing in, for a flower effect, and this will be a lovely addition to a bridal shower menu. If you can find Marcona almonds, use them! They are a Spanish almond that tastes like a cross between an almond and a cashew.
