Craving some fried rice tonight? Let’s ditch the carbs and make a cauliflower version that is both satisfying and delicious. Cauliflower is a great substitution for rice. When you grate cauliflower in a processor or chop it up finely it really resembles rice, from its looks to its textures.
This is a great recipe if you are new to using cauliflower as a grain substitute because of its simplicity. This recipe has a great balance of mixed vegetables, egg, and of course cauliflower!
You can enjoy it as a main dish or pair it with some protein, like chicken. You can even kick it up a notch and add some spices and seasoning to your personal preference.
This recipe pairs nicely with our Spinach and Cheese Stuffed Meatloaf.
