Holy buckets this is AMAZING!!!
2. Oh wow - this was soooo
Oh wow - this was soooo delicious!! Made this after falling badly from my mostly raw diet and it's got me pumped to get back in the groove! Thanks for a delicious recipe!!

Wow! This was my first dish as a raw vegan and having had cooked Spanish Rice just a few days beforehand, I can say that this was an awesome substitute for the original! I added some poblano peppers and ancho chili powder for a little more kick!
4.
YUM-I made this and my non-raw hubby loved it! He said he could eat it everyday. I added cumin and extra cilantro to mine.
Very GOOD!
5.
I just used a regular cheese grater to do the cauliflower - it worked "grate"! I added twice the amount of cilantro (beacuse my garden is bursting with it) a little cumin and left out the avocado to keep it light. A pretty tasty dish!
6.
Holy moly--this tasted so good!!! I, too, made it w/ parsnips and as well added a bit of cumin. Rolled it in lettuce leaves and yum yum yum, the rest is history. Hubby loved it too!
This recipe is a definite must try!

I love this recipe and make it quite frequently, sometimes experimenting with different spices. I've added mushrooms too and it's delicious.

My daughter was visiting from California and I was introducing her to raw foods, so I made this for her. She was here for 2 weeks and I wound up making it 4 times she loved it so much

I made this last night with parsnips instead of cauliflower. It was so good!! A little too spicy for me so I will use less chili next time, but my SAD eating bf loved it and ate the whole thing!!

yummy, i made this tonight, but i added some agave nector for a little sweetness with spice and it was delicious

YuuummMMmm..I made this for dinner tonight for my mom and I. It was really tasty! We both really enjoyed it :) I think i processed the cauliflower too much but it was delicious either way. Thanks for the recipe!

Very tasty, but took me some time to prepare. I brought it to a couple of potlucks and people could not guess what it was. It's a bit heavy / creamy, so cooked food people enjoy it as well.

Really enjoyed this. And so simple to make can't see that anyone would unsuccessful. Daughter (not raw but 'interested') was really surprised and loved it. Lots of flavour. Will definitely be making it again.

I love this Spanish Rice! I've made it three times already, once for my daughter and her 7 year old who loved it. I put in a little extra chili powder and some garlic. When I made it for my daughter, we had extra mashed avocado, too, which she loved. I also traveled with this recipe in a little plastic container and kept it chilled with ice that I picked up on the other side of security. But the ice leaked inside my bag, so next time I travel (two trips this week) I'm just going to freeze some to take along. I've tried using cauliflower in the past to stand in for rice or mashed potatoes without much luck. This REALLY works.

This was so delicious. I am new to raw foods, have been eating a lot of fruit salad (fast and easy - c'mon, I'm a student...), and really wanted to try some actual recipes. So this was one of the first I tried. I added a teaspoon of cumin, and left out the jalapeno. I rolled some up in some romaine leaves - mm! So good! Thanks for posting the recipe!

This recipe is so tasty! So easy to make too. I was amazed by the similarity in texture of the processed cauliflower to rice. I added a dollup of guacamole and extra tomato on top and gobbled it up. Thanks for sharing!
