Easy, Creamy Cauliflower Risotto is a quick keto and low carb recipe prepared using frozen or fresh riced cauliflower. The ingredients include mushrooms, white wine, cream, and I like to toss on shrimp. You can add any protein you wish!
Heat a pan on medium-high heat and add the butter.
When the butter melts, add the chopped mushrooms and onions. Saute until the onions are translucent and fragrant.
Add the garlic and stir.
Lower the heat to medium and add in the riced cauliflower and stir and ensure it gets coated in butter.
Add in the white wine, broth, salt and pepper to taste and stir.
Cover the pan and simmer for 10 minutes or until the cauliflower is tender.
Open the lid on the pan and add in the cream, lemon juice, Parmesan Reggiano, and spinach. Stir until equally coated and the cheese melts.

Notes
I used the frozen riced cauliflower from Green Giant. Each package consists of 10oz, I used a package and a half.
If you use fresh cauliflower, be sure to weigh your serving and adjust the macros if necessary. You may also need to lower the cook time when you simmer to 7-8 minutes.
If you find the risotto isn't creamy enough, add more cream, butter, or parmesan cheese. Feel free to adjust the recipe to fit your needs.
Feel free to toss in cooked shrimp, chicken, or whatever you like. I love to add shrimp.
