I’ve made several cauliflower inspired dishes recently. Since I’m the only one at the house that eats the stuff I make my $1.99 Aldi purchase last for several meals.
Recently a friend at my CrossFit box inspired me to try ‘fried cauliflower rice’ – you know fried rice from Chinese restaurants? Well it was delicious, even though there are some key ingredients missing.
Here’s what you’ll need:
Cauliflower (depending on how many you’ll serve, I used a quarter of a head)
2 to 3 eggs
Shrimp, thawed
Spices (She suggested ginger, but I didn’t have any)
Coconut oil (1 to 2 tablespoons)
Directions:
Grate the cauliflower or finely chop it with a food processor
In a skillet fry the eggs (I forgot to do the eggs first) with coconut oil
Saute the cauliflower and add the fried eggs
I had to fry the eggs with the cauliflower in the skillet.
Add your shrimp and garnish
Another spin on this dish – no eggs:
Cauliflower ‘rice’ sautéed in coconut oil with lime juice and cilantro. Sautéed shrimp in coconut oil & added slices of avocado.
