Honey Pad Thai Recipe With Cauliflower Rice: Think Outside the Box With This Easy Vegetarian Pad Thai Recipe Thai Recipes Vegetarian Dinner Side Dishes

I love that this honey Pad Thai from the National Honey Board is made with cauliflower rice, because it’s more nutritious and lower in calories when compared to traditional Pad Thai. The ingredients are simple in this recipe, so it takes just a few minutes to prepare the rice mixture. I made the sauce ahead of time, so all I need to do is add it.
