Rice With Less Carbohydrates ?

Not strictly 'low-carb', but if you eat brown (unprocessed rice) the body has to expend more energy in processing the carbohydrates and you also get more fibre in your consumption.

(isn't it crazy that it costs more to buy rice that has been through LESS processing?)

Cauliflower blended as mentioned is solid idea.

There is also these Yam noodles sold in stores called Konjak or Shirataki.. It has no net carbs but tastes kind of carby... Nce texture and it absorbs flavors well.

Sold in all the supermarkets near the kim chi and pickled stuff.

I quote from Wikipedia

"According to the Canadian Diabetes Association, basmati rice has a "medium" glycemic index (between 56 and 69), thus making it more suitable for diabetics as compared to certain other grains and products made from white flour."

Basmati is an Indian grown rice
