Broccoli rice is a great low-carb side dish. Tasty alone or as a replacement for rice under your favorite stir-fry or sauce. It also makes a delicious filling for tacos, over a grain bowl, or cool and toss in a salad. Add other herbs and flavors as desired!

- 1 (12 ounce) bag broccoli florets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil

Place 1/2 of the broccoli florets in a food processor; pulse about 20 times until broccoli looks like grains of rice. Repeat with remaining broccoli florets.
