Meatless Monday - Cauliflower Fried Rice

Some people can't eat rice, or don't want to for dietary reasons.  That does not have to mean they can't still enjoy the taste of fried rice.  They just need to use cauliflower instead of rice.  It's delicious.  Here's the way I made it but you don't have to stick to this recipe, feel free to add or subtract any veggies that you like.

Chopped Carrots and Green Beans

Don't the carrots look great in this green berry bowl, I guess they aren't just for berries.

Cauliflower Fried Rice

Ingredients

• 1/2 TBSP olive oil
• 4 cloves of garlic, minced
• 1/2 cup of onion, diced
• 1/2 cup carrots, chopped fairly small
• 1/2 cup green beans
• 3 cups of raw cauliflower, chopped finely or grated
• 4 eggs, scrambled
• 3 TBSP soy sauce
• Chili Sauce (such as Srirach) to taste

In a wok or other large pan heat the olive oil on medium heat, add the onion and garlic, saute for about 2-3 minutes until the onions become soft and transparent.

Add the carrots and green beans and cook until the carrots start to soften, about 3-4 minutes.

Add the scrambled eggs, cauliflower and soy sauce stirring frequently for 5 -7 minutes.

Serve with a little chili sauce if you like to spice things up a bit.
