CAULIFLOWER FRIED RICE
My friend Sally, is an amazing cook. She always has great recipes and has yet to fail me on a single one. She is the mastermind behind my incredibly successful No-Bake Peanut Butter Oatmeal Bars.
When we were together the other day and we were talking about what to make for dinner, Sally told me about this and I couldn’t wait to give it a try.
I served the cauliflower fried rice with an easy to make beef stir fry and it was a huge hit, even my kids loved it! (Looking for other great “cauliflower” substitutes – check out my cauliflower breadsticks and pizza crust.

1 Bag Bag of frozen Trader Joe's Riced Cauliflower or a head of cauliflower chopped up and "riced" in a food processor (let it sit on counter for a few minutes so that it is slightly thawed...bang it a little to break up the chunks, you will need about 1½ cups chopped)

1/4 cup broccoli (chopped)
3 Tablespoons soy sauce

INSTRUCTIONS
Heat oil in a large skillet on medium/high heat.
Saute onions until tender. Add peas, carrots and brocolli and cook until soft.
Add frozen cauliflower (or fresh riced cauliflower) to the pan. Mix with vegetables and continue to saute until the cauliflower is no longer frozen.
Add approximately 2 tablespoons of soy sauce and mix well.
Slide the rice to one side of the pan and scramble the egg on the other side of the pan.
Once the egg is cooked, mix in with the rice and add additional soy sauce (to taste preference)
