This is an great side dish or entrée to make at home! Cauliflower fried rice is crunch, delicious and very easy to make. The best part is that it is a healthy recipe friendly with a keto diet, paleo diet or any low carb lifestyle. This is one of those healthy recipes that you can make at home and satisfies your craving for Chinese food.
I made this in my Le Crueset pan, but you could do it in any kind of a sauté pan on the stove. No fancy tools needed and all ingredients could be easily found at the store.
Speaking of ingredients, there are a lot of great, riced cauliflower options (cauliflower rice) out there to help you skip the step of chopping cauliflower in a food processor.
