Cauliflower “Fried Rice”

I could literally sit and eat an entire bowl of Chinese Fried Rice. But how could I do it and not feel guilty about the carb indulgence. It’s a simple switch, using cauliflower instead of rice! And you can barely detect a difference. Like many of my recipes, this one takes less than 20 minutes to throw together and uses only 5 ingredients, two of which are frozen food items.

Cauliflower “Fried Rice”

20 minutes or less
Serves 4

Ingredients:

  • 1 10oz bag of frozen cauliflower rice
  • 1 10-12oz bag of mixed frozen veggies
  • Any other veggies you have on hand, chopped
  • 2-4 eggs, based on preference
  • 2-3 tablespoons of store bought jar of teriyaki sauce, but can add more to taste*
  • Optional: add in cooked chicken or shrimp that’s marinated in teriyaki sauce

*For this recipe, I used Soy Vay Veri Veri Teriyaki Marinade and Sauce.

Instructions:

  1. Cook frozen cauliflower rice and frozen vegetables according to package.
  2. Meanwhile, in large skillet saute extra chopped veggies in 2 Tbsp oil (optional). I added leftover 1/2 of zucchini and 1/4 orange pepper.
  3. Add cooked cauliflower rice and cooked mixed veggies to skillet.
  4. Use a spoon to move rice mix to the rim of the skillet, making a small hole in the middle for the eggs (imagine a donut).
  5. Crack the eggs into middle of pan and scramble for a couple minutes.
  6. Add in teriyaki sauce and stir all together. Let cook for a 3-5 minutes on medium heat and add more sauce if you want after tasting. You can also add soy sauce if you want.
  7. Enjoy!
