  • 1/2 an onion, diced small
  • 4 garlic cloves, chopped
  • 4 TBS butter
  • 2 tsp lemon zest, grated
  • salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  2. couscous, but not pureed. You might need to pick out any large pieces and put those back into the food processor, and pulse those again. Melt the butter over low heat in a large saute pan. Add the onion and garlic, and cook on low heat until soft. Add the cauliflower couscous, cover, and cook over low heat around 5-7 minutes.
