  • 2 tablespoons ghee or avocado oil
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • In a large skillet, heat ghee over medium heat. Once hot, add diced celery and onion and saut until the veggies are soft and fragrant (5 to 7 minutes).
  • Add the drained riced cauliflower. Turn the heat up slight, and saute until all the moisture cooks out and the riced cauliflower is warmed through.
  • Stir in the buffalo sauce and toss to coat. Cook for an additional minute to marry the flavors. Remove and serve hot garnished with chopped cilantro.
