Today, we are continuing with my current cauliflower obsession.

I am always amazed by all the things it can do and today I've got a Cauliflower Risotto for you!

Guys, this recipe is so easy to make and so yummy.

Don't you love it when you can take something simple and make it extraordinary?

That is what Alexia is all about.

We have used their product for years because I trust that they use the highest quality ingredients that taste great. They are non-GMO project verified, gluten-free and they use organic dairy ingredients.

I was so excited when I learned that we were coming out with premium vegetable sides. You know I love my starchy foods, but I can't always afford the calories.

You can use these starch replacement side dishes with no additional ingredients - they come ready to cook out of the back and are ready in less than 10 minutes.

They are also fabulous as a springboard to a complete meal.

Today we are using the Cauliflower Risotto with Parmesan and Sea Salt to make a one-dish meal that is such a simple pleasure. With savory parmesan cheese, sea salt, and rich cream, the whole family has a reason to celebrate. (And you can celebrate getting dinner on the table in less than 30 minutes!)

Just in time for the holidays, they Alexia also has Mashed Butternut Squash with Butter and Brown Sugar. This is a decadent twist on a family favorite that is holiday worthy, but easy enough for Tuesday night. You won't believe how delicious it is. Just a touch of brown sugar and butter create a savory flavor with just a touch of sweetness.

You can find Alexia Premium Vegetable Sides at Giant Eagle, Kroger, Meijer, and other fine grocers.

    That looks so tasty! I love using cauliflower in place of fairly empty starchy calories. Great idea!

    This is exactly the kind of dish I love to make when I'm pressed for time. That cauliflower rice is healthy, and it makes the dish faster. That's perfect for me!

    This looks so good! I have been roasting cauliflower and it would be nice to mix things up a little. I love the Alexa brand but I haven't tried this product yet, so I'll have to see if I can find it.

    This recipe looks so good even though I am not a fan of cauliflower. I might have to give this a try because I really need some new side dishes to eat that are healthy.

    We are HUGE fans of Alexia products! (I seriously haven't met a product by them that I didn't LOVE!) Your Cauliflower Risotto looks absolutely incredible - it just may have to go on our family dinner rotation!

    This does sound like a great alternative. Unfortunately, I do love starches.
