I wouldn’t let cauliflower rice trick you into thinking this is a healthy dish because there’s a whole lotta cheese. Fontina and sage butter meet Cauliflower. Talk amongst yourselves.

In a large skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add onion and cook until soft, 5 minutes. Add garlic, until fragrant, 1 minute.
Grate cauliflower on a Box Grater (or buy cauliflower rice already grated).
Put grated cauliflower in a clean dishtowel and twist to drain excess liquid – VERY IMPORTANT when you are adding to hot oil.
Add a splash more oil to skillet if it seems dry, then add drained grated cauliflower and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender
Top with cheeses and cover with lid to let melt, 2 minutes.
Drizzle excess sage butter on top of the rice, top with crispy sage and serve.
