Ingredients

  • 2 packs of Fullgreen's Riced Broccoli & Cauliflower (7oz / 200g)
  • ½ large Onion (or 4 shallots), finely diced
  • 2½ cups / 200g of Porcini Mushrooms, thinly sliced
  • 7oz / 200g of fresh Asparagus, coarsely chopped
  • 2 cloves of Garlic, minced
  • 2-3 sprigs of fresh Thyme
  • 3 tbsp of 5% Fat Greek Yogurt
  • ½ cup / 120ml of Chicken Bone Broth (or Vegetable Broth)
  • 1 tbsp of Parmesan Cheese, grated
  • Juice of half a Lemon
  • A little Olive Oil
  • Salt & Black Pepper to taste

Method

  1. 1 In a ceramic non-stick pan, over a medium heat, sauté the Onion (or Shallots) and Garlic in a little Oil, until translucent.
  2. 2 Brown the Mushrooms and Asparagus, along with some Thyme and a generous squeeze of Lemon Juice, before turning down the heat a little and adding the Bone Broth.
  3. 3 Simmer the Broth for 3-5 minutes until the Mushrooms and Asparagus are tender. Then turn the heat OFF completely.
  4. 4 Add the Cauli Rice and stir-in the Parmesan and Yogurt. Traditional risotto requires constant stirring over a low heat but this recipe is now second from being ready.
  5. 5 Once the Parmesan and Yogurt have combined with the Broth, the Cauli Rice will be heated through.
  6. 6 Add a few more Thyme leaves, a little Salt (if needed) and plenty of Black Pepper. Now it's ready to serve and Enjoy!
