If you find yourself asking What is Riced Broccoli, then look no further! Broccoli Rice is a great grain-free alternative to serve up with your next meal. Plus it is a fantastic way to sneak in an extra serving of speedy vegetables when following the Slimming World plan.

Everyone’s crazy for cauliflower rice, but if you ask me, broccoli rice deserves just as much love. It’s such a great way to take an entire head of broccoli with the stalk and all and turn it into something delicious. I absolutely love to find ways of cutting my carbs. This broccoli rice absolutely hits that spot… and is perfect served with curries, chicken, burritos.. well honestly the list is endless!
