cauliflower fried rice {vegetarian, gf}

Having a bag of frozen cauliflower rice in your freezer for meal-makers and smoothies is always a good idea. This dish only took about 10 minutes to make and requires minimal ingredients, making it perfect for busy college students. I just used the veggies I had in my fridge, but you can use whatever you like: carrots, zucchini, or baby corn would also be delicious. Stir in some cubed tofu or crumbled tempe for added protein if you wish. 

What you'll need:

2 cups frozen or fresh cauliflower rice
1 egg + 1 egg white 
1/2 of a red pepper diced
1/2 cup baby bella mushrooms 
1/2 cup sugar snap peas sliced

Flavoring + toppers:
1 lime squeezed
1-2 tbsp coconut aminos
1 tbsp spicy chili oil
1/4 cup crushed peanuts 
pinch of crushed red pepper
handful of sprouts 

What you'll need to do:

1. Sauté veggies {and optional protein} in hot skillet with a little oil until they are about a third cooked. 
2. Add cauliflower rice and allow to defrost.
3. Crack eggs into the pan and continue to stirring to evenly distribute and cook the egg.
4. Add desired flavors and spices: squeeze lime, add coconut amines, spicy chili oil, etc.
5. Top with sprouts, crushed red pepper, or even crushed peanuts. 

Enjoy,
