Not only is this keto cauliflower risotto recipe faster to make than traditional risotto- but it is a naturally gluten-free and low carb risotto.

Over the spoon for:
- Healthy creamy risotto
- Low carb side dish
- Ready in 15 minutes
What do you need:
- Cauliflower rice – I buy frozen cauliflower rice, but you could buy freshly chopped cauliflower rice or make it yourself in a food processor
- Fresh or frozen peas – canned peas would not be as good in this recipe
- Cream cheese- you could use plant based to make this vegan
- Rosemary - dried or fresh
- Parmesan cheese – this is optional
How to make:
- Saute ½ cup diced white onion with 8 oz of sliced white mushroom for 5-6 minutes with ¼ tsp salt.
- Stir in 2 bags of frozen cauliflower rice with ½ cup frozen pea and allow to cook through (about 6 minutes.)
- Stir in 2 tbsp of cream cheese and 1 tsp dried rosemary.
- Top with ½ cup shredded parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper.
Tips to prep:
- To make this keto risotto in lightning fast speed: slice mushrooms and onion ahead of time.
- Or buy already sliced mushroom and use frozen diced onion!
Serve keto risotto as the side to your favorite entrée like Air Fryer Pork Chops.
