Ingredients

  • Cauliflower - 400 grams
  • Olive oil - 3 tablespoons
  • Fresh spinach - 150 grams
  • Chard or Swiss chard - 150 grams
  • Fresh dill - 2 tablespoons, chopped
  • Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
  • Lemon juice - 1 tablespoon
  • Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
  • Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
  • Feta cheese - 50 grams, crumbled (optional)

Steps

  1. Begin by washing the spinach and chard thoroughly to remove any dirt and grit. Drain and set aside.
  2. Cut the cauliflower into florets and pulse in a food processor until it resembles rice. Alternatively, you can grate it using a box grater.
  3. In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Add the washed spinach and chard to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes until wilted. Stir in the chopped dill, salt, and black pepper.
  5. In another skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the cauliflower rice and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until tender. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Once the greens are cooked, add the lemon juice and stir well to combine. Remove from heat.
  7. To serve, place a generous portion of cauliflower rice on each plate, top with the sautéed greens, and sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese if desired.
