So Pat was told to cut way back on carbs. Now everything is either a carb, a fat or a protein. So it's not really cut back on carbs as cut back on high carb food. Like noodles and rice. So he is counting and I am trying to cook better meals for carb counting.
So I made a kind of Swedish meatballs last night. Normally that is served over potatoes or rice. I personally like rice best but I can go either way. Well potatoes are a starchy carb and rice is just high carb. So I picked up a package of frozen riced cauliflower to try. The texture is not quite rice, but close and there is an underlying taste of cauliflower. But when the meatballs are on top it is all right. Meatballs are not something we will have often but it is nice to have a substitute to make the whole meal a lot less carby. And that riced cauliflower probably works pretty well with a chicken stir-fry.
