Fried Rice (Cauliflower) - Lower Carb
My new favorite recipe. Anything to help me get a few more veggies! Uses shredded cauliflower instead of rice to lower the carbs. Pretty tasty too.
Fried Rice
Ingredients:
1 lb ground turkey or boneless/skinless chicken breast cut into chunks
Raw cauliflower (1/2 to 3/4 head)
1 small yellow or white onion or 3 green onions, chopped (save 1 green onion to top dish at end)
1/4 tsp grated fresh ginger root
1 clove garlic, minced
1 egg
Splash of Bragg's Liquid Aminos or 2 tsp low sodium soy sauce
optional
coleslaw mix
Directions:
Prep: sauté the meat of your choice in a large nonstick skillet, then pull it out and set it aside. Use the same skillet to prepare your rice - you will add the meat back in at the end of the cooking process.
1. Shred cauliflower and sauté it in a nonstick pan sprayed with EVOO
2. Add minced garlic, onion, ginger and cook until the "rice" started to pick up some color
3. 3-5 minutes
4. Add 1/2 cup coleslaw (optional). You can also add fresh grated carrot, bean sprouts or finely chopped celery to this dish.
5. When everything else looks done, push everything out to the edges of the pan and crack an egg into the center
6. scramble it as you cook it up then blend it with the "rice"
7. Add back in your choice of meat, add a splash of Bragg's Liquid Aminos or Low Sodium Soy Sauce, top with some green onions and serve hot.

This sounds great. I plan on trying. Pureed cauliflower makes a tastey "fake" mashed potato substitute as well.0

Doesnt the cauliflower fall apart?0

I finally tried cauli rice the other day, & i love it-shouldve made it ages ago. Ive been using it as a side at a lot of meals to help fill me up (with the rest of my dinner) for not too many cals.
As for grating it, i justrubbed raw cauliflower on a large size cheese grater.
