To keep this recipe Paleo, the traditional grains are replaced with riced cauliflower. This simple veggie easily takes on the flavors around as it simmers. For easier prep, you can also shop for pre-packaged cauliflower rice at your local health food store.

To get started, place the cauliflower florets into the food processor and grind into small “couscous” granules. Add the cauliflower to a large skillet over medium heat and stir in the olive oil, sliced almonds, cranberries, apple juice, turmeric, and honey. Let everything simmer for about five minutes or until the cauliflower is al dente. Season with salt and pepper and serve immediately! You can also keep leftovers in the fridge for up to one day.
