Made in ONE POT! So easy. So cheesy. So garlicky. A side dish for all of your meals! Can be made with brown rice or quinoa.
The pictures don’t do this zucchini rice any justice. So for that, I apologize.
You’ll just have to take my word for it. Because really, would I lie to you?
The answer is no. So get to the grocery store and buy your zucchini and cheese. STAT. Because this needs to be made like yesterday.
And if you’re a little bit health conscious, brown rice or even quinoa would be a great substitute.
But the combination of the garlic, cheese and freshly grated zucchini knocks this right out of the park, and you’ll never want plain rice EVER again.
For that, I apologize again.
