Instructions
Begin by removing the outer leaves of the cabbage and cutting it into quarters. Remove the core from each quarter.
Using a food processor, pulse each cabbage quarter until the texture resembles grains of rice. Alternately, you can finely chop the cabbage with a knife.

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Add the riced cabbage to the skillet, stirring to coat with the garlic-infused oil.
Season the cabbage with salt, black pepper, and onion powder, stirring well to combine.
Cook the cabbage rice for about 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally until it becomes tender but not soggy.
Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the chopped parsley for a fresh flavor.
