- Add the turmeric powder and mix well.

Notes
If Making Cauliflower Rice
Sauté onions and garlic as outlined in the original recipe. Then add red pepper and turmeric and cook for another 5 minutes. Add in the minced cauliflower and salt and add more oil as needed to keep cauliflower from sticking.
Once cauliflower grains have ‘softened’, it’s ready to serve. Stir in the parsley and away you go.
