I’m the lower carb person in the house, so hubby and boys needed a little extra to this dish. Added minced garlic to ghee, dried onion, mushroom umami and cooked mushrooms. Instead of salt we did Italian cheese.
I enjoyed it before the cheese and will probably do this again when I find palmini rice again.
Love this Alicia! All of your additions sound delicious!
I’m very new to using hearts of palm, and this recipe was great. So simple. My favorite thing about deciding to eat lower-carb is there’s so many healthier foods I’ve discovered I like! I was tempted to mix in some cheese to this dish but I’m glad I didn’t. Thanks for a delicious addition to my meal planning.
I’m so happy to hear this Elaine! It’s such a great low-carb swap!
