How to make cauliflower rice

I always have frozen steamed cauliflower rice in the freezer for times that I need a quick meal, or to add it to smoothies (yes, you read that right!). But you can also make it fresh (which is even more nutritious as it’s not pre-cooked), by pulsing cauliflower florets in a blender for a few seconds until a rice consistency forms.
