    For something so simple, I had a hell of time figuring out what to call this dish. I obviously went with the most exciting, mouth-watering one: brussels cauliflower rice.

    You're hooked, aren't you? I knew it.

    I get it - this sounds boring and probably better coming from someone who posts more smoothies than sangria. But today you've got me (hey I like smoothies too!!), and I'm here to tell you this fake rice is one of my favorite side dishes I've ever made.

    Partly because I think it's delicious in all its simplicity, but also because you can make it in a snap. And if you're a person who likes to buy pre-sliced brussels sprouts and/or pre-riced cauliflower? This has your name written all over it. Just give me 15 minutes (less, even!) and I'll give you a dish to pair with pretty much anything you've already got planned for dinner.

    Of course, if you don't have anything planned, you can just throw a fried egg on top of this brussels cauliflower rice and call it a meal. Options, y'all.
