Cauliflower fried rice is one of my entry to the menu for lunch! As much as I love the homemade fried rice, sometimes I just look for a lighter alternative!
Switch the cauliflower rice to white rice (or even chocolate) in this recipe is not only delicious, but it also makes for a more low carb low cal cauliflower fried rice that I couldn't get enough!
Fried cauliflower rice recipe is easy to make and the end result is an amazing dish that works well as a side and main dishes!
When cooked, cauliflower can act similarly to rice, by taking in all the flavors of the spices that you cook with. Cauliflower fried rice is a weekday dinner, and a great way to use any leftover meat or vegetables in Your refrigerator.
I love making this when I have to clean the leftovers in my refrigerator. Shrimp, pork, beef, celery, bell pepper, carrot ... a list of amazing things that you can add is not over!
