SidesWhitney Carlson5 Comments

Cauliflower is such a versatile vegetable. Who knew you could make pizza crust, mashed "potatoes", alfredo sauce or even cheesy "breadstick" dippers? Well, we have come up with another way to use that cauliflower - make it into a clean version of your hibachi favorite, fried rice! There's no need to add the extra carbs if you don't have to - here's the recipe!

Cauliflower "Fried Rice"

Ingredients:

  • 1 large head of cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 2 TBSP coconut oil
  • 1 small sweet onion, diced
  • 1.5 c zucchini, diced
  • 1 c mushrooms, diced
  • 2 c carrots, shredded
  • (OPTIONAL) 1 whole egg, scrambled
  • 2 TBSP coconut aminos

 

Directions:

1. Place cauliflower florets in a food processor and pulse until you create cauliflower "snow" or it begins to look like rice.

2. Heat coconut oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.

3. Add diced onion and cook until onions become clear, stirring often - approximately 6-7 minutes.

4. Combine zucchini and mushrooms in pot with onions and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes.

5. Add carrots to pan and saute for 2 minutes.

6. OPTIONAL: Add scrambled egg and stir to combine.

7. Combine cauliflower "snow" with mixture in pan and continue to heat for 1 minute. 

8. Add coconut aminos, stirring thoroughly to combine.
