Cauliflower Fried Rice

fried cauliflower rice

I was scrolling Pinterest a while back and saw a recipe for fried rice made with cauliflower instead of rice.  I had tried the cauliflower pizza a while back and it was not a Pinterest success for me so I hadn’t tried the fried rice yet.  I had a head of cauliflower in the house that needed to be used so I decided to give it a shot.  I am so glad I did- it was a-maz-ing!!!

As I normally do I looked up a handful of recipes and created one that I would like and with ingredients I had in the house.  Here is what I came up with:

cauliflower rice ingredients

  • 1 tsp coconut oil
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 2 cups of finely chopped cauliflower
  • 1 chopped carrot
  • 1/2 cup of edamame
  • 1/4 cup chopped red bell peppers
  • 2 tsp liquid amino
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • pepper, to taste

To chop your cauliflower you can use a veggie chopper, food processor or blender.  Chop until it is rice-like.

Warm your pan, then add coconut oil.  Sauté the garlic for 1 minute.  Add the chopped cauliflower, carrot, edamame, bell pepper and liquid amino.  On medium heat, stir for about 5-7 minute until the cauliflower is soft.  Make a round opening in the middle of the pan and add the 2 beaten eggs.  Stir and scramble the eggs into the veggies.  Add some pepper to taste.

This makes 2 servings and counts as 1 1/2 green, 1/2 yellow, 1/2 red per serving for those following the 21 Day Fix.

Enjoy!
