Ingredients

  • 4 cups cauliflower rice prepared
  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • 1/4 cup onion diced
  • 1 1/2 cups frozen vegetables I used peas, carrots and beans
  • 2 eggs beaten
  • Green onions optional
  • Soy sauce to taste (or coconut aminos)

Instructions

  • Start by dicing up your onion very fine. Turn the stove on and place a skillet with oil in the pan. Let it get hot, then toss in the onions. Cook onions for around 3 minutes or until softened.
  • Now you will add in your veggies and cauliflower rice, and cook until fully cooked.
  • Mix up your eggs in a small dish, whisking it. Make a hole in the pan, add in the egg, and scramble, and mix in with the cauliflower and veggies. The egg will cook in 2-4 minutes.
  • Remove cauliflower fried rice from heat, garnish with green onions and add on some soy sauce or coconut aminos for flavor.

Notes

Veggies - Feel free to use any variety of veggies you would like. Onions, peppers, peas, carrots, broccoli, etc.
Chicken - If you want to make this a main dish, dice up and pan cook chicken until fully cooked. Or use leftover diced or shredded chicken you mix in.
Storage - You can store the cauliflower rice in the fridge for up to 5 days, or 3 days if you add chicken to the mixture.
Freezer Friendly - You can freeze leftover cauliflower rice for 2-3 months. Then reheat in the microwave or skillet.
Cauliflower Rice - You can use frozen cauliflower rice or make fresh. Both methods work for this recipe. If you are in a hurry or want to simplify, use frozen.
