Recipe: Spiced Cinnamon Apple Cauliflower “Oatmeal”

Recipe: Spiced Cinnamon Apple Cauliflower “Oatmeal”
September 23, 2021RecipesRecipes: Fall & Winter

Cauliflower is at it again, this time for breakfast. But, alas! If you’ve struggled with getting in non-starchy vegetables first thing in the morning, this recipe will be sure to help you out. Cauliflower’s easily manipulated flavor is transformed into a delicious and slightly sweet breakfast that resembles your favorite traditional oatmeal. Rich in potassium and fiber, we love cauliflower rice to bulk up vegetable intake!

If you’re concerned with saving time in the kitchen, rely on some pantry and freezer staples for this breakfast. Although fresh is always best, frozen cauliflower rice is a great alternative! Paired with dried fruits and nuts, this recipe’s ingredients are things you can stock up on and have around if you’re ever looking for a wholesome breakfast in a pinch.
