Ingredients

2 tbsp olive oil divided
2 cups water or broth
2 cups almond flour
1/4 cup nutritional yeast
1/2 tsp sea salt

Instructions

In a soup pot, heat 1 tbsp olive oil over medium heat. Add cauliflower florets and saute for a couple minutes.
Add 2 cups of water/broth and bring to a boil by turning up the heat to medium-high. Let simmer for 7 minutes or so until cauliflower pierces fork tender. Do not drain water.
Using an immersion blender, begin to process cauliflower until it looks like rice.
Add almond flour one cup at a time and continue processing until you achieve a smooth texture.
Stir in nutritional yeast and season with sea salt.
Add a little almond milk if you want a creamier texture.
Finish with 1 tbsp of olive oil.

Notes

Adjust sea salt used depending on if you use water or broth. If you use water, sea salt will be necessary. If you use broth, you will not need to add sea salt.
