I never made it with roasted cauliflower though (I usualy cut the cauliflower in small florets that I add in the pan with the broth, so that it cooks with the rice) so I guess I have to give it a try! Cauliflower rice stands in for arborio in this recipe that's not only lower in carbs than traditional risotto, but also way faster and easier to make! Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. CAULIFLOWER RISOTTO comes out perfectly cream like a traditional risotto without all of the carbs.

- Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Set aside.
- Clean cauliflower and cut into large pieces (roughly 2 inches or the size of the largest florets).
- Place cauliflower in a large bowl. Sprinkle with garlic powder, salt and pepper. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat. Pour out onto lined cookie sheet in a single layer.
- Place cauliflower in oven and bake for about 40 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes. It should be fork tender, but slightly firm.
- Remove cauliflower from oven, transfer to a cutting board and tent with foil from baking sheet for about 5 minutes.
- Remove foil. Chop cauliflower (or pulse in food processor) until it is the size of arborio rice.
- Place cauliflower in a medium sauce pan over medium low heat. Add all remaining ingredients except parmesan and parsley. Heat through, stirring constantly until cream cheese is melted.
