Cauliflower "fried" Rice

Veggies are a big trend in food right now... using low calorie vegetables to replace noodles, rice, bread, crust, etc. is not only popular but super smart and tasty!

Here's a delicious recipe for cauliflower "fried" rice...

What you need:
1/2 head cauliflower (make into rice by grating it or use food processor until it resembles rice)
1/2TBSP coconut oil
1/2C peas
1 egg
1TBSP soy sauce
Optional: spicy chili sauce

How to:
Heat oil in pan. Add egg and cook through. Add "rice" and all other ingredients. Cook 5-7 minutes. I topped mine with chicken stir-fry. You can make the rice a meal all on it's own... add another egg to boost the protein!

What's your favorite veggie replacement meal?

  1. I have recently gotten on the Cauli-rice bandwagon. I like to make sticky rice to eat with my curries. I use this recipe for the rice: http://paleomg.com/pumpkin-cashew-coconut-curry-coconut-rice/

  3. I love this cauliflower rice as a base for taco salads: http://popularpaleo.com/cilantro-lime-cauliflower-rice/ and I love spaghetti squash in place of pasta. I haven't seen the pre-grated cauliflower yet, but now I am really excited to try it!
