Looks and tastes exactly like fried rice! But so much healthier for you! Tastes amazing plain, or would also be great with some ham, chicken or meat added!

Ingredients

1 head cauliflower, about 2 ½ cups chopped
2 tablespoons sesame oil
1 chopped small white onion, about ¾ cup
1 cup frozen peas and carrots, thawed
2 eggs, lightly beaten
2-3 tablespoons soy sauce, more or less to taste
2 tablespoons chopped green onions

Instructions

Rinse and chop the 1 head cauliflower, into florets and put them into a food processor. (If you don't have a food processor continue to chop the cauliflower into tiny pieces.) Pulse the cauliflower until it is small and resembles rice.
Preheat a large skillet or wok to medium heat. Pour 2 tablespoons sesame oil in the pan. Add 1 chopped small white onion, 1 cup frozen peas and carrots, and fry until tender.
Slide the onion, peas, and carrots to the side, and pour the 2 eggs, onto the other side of the pan. Using a spatula, scramble the eggs. Once cooked, mix the eggs with the vegetables.
Add the cauliflower to the veggie and egg mixture. Pour the 2-3 tablespoons soy sauce, on top. Stir and fry the rice and veggie mixture until heated through and the cauliflower is tender. Add 2 tablespoons chopped green onions if desired.
