    Ingredients

    • 1 tablespoon avocado oil
    • 6 cloves garlic, chopped
    • 2 inch piece ginger, chopped
    • 1 small onion, chopped
    • 2 eggs
    • 16 ounces cauliflower rice, 1 Trader Joe's bag
    • 1 cup frozen carrots & peas
    • Β½ cup frozen corn
    • 2 tablespoon soy sauce, for gluten-free, use gf
    • 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
    • 1 tablespoon siracha
    • Β½ cup scallions, chopped
    • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
    • ΒΌ teaspoon black pepper
    • pinch of salt, don't overdo it since soy sauce has salt

    Instructions

    • Chop the garlic, ginger and onion.
    • Heat up a wok on medium-high heat. Once hot, add oil. Add ginger and garlic. Saute for 20 seconds.
    • Add onion. Saute for a couple minutes.
    • Crack 2 eggs over the onion.
    • Keep stirring the eggs for a minute or so. They may stick to your wok, that's okay.
    • Add the cauliflower fried rice (I used Trader Joe's).
    • Stir and let the cauliflower crisp up - about 5 minutes.
    • Set aside your frozen ingredients - peas, carrots and corn.
    • Once the cauliflower is done, add the frozen veggies. Also add soy sauce, rice wine vinegar and siracha. Stir. Let the cauliflower cook for about 5 minutes until hot.
    • In the meantime, chop the scallions.
    • Once the fried rice is done, add the scallions. Stir.
    • Add a teaspoon of toasted sesame oil.
    • Top with black pepper and a touch of salt (if need be).
    • On the side I sauteed some bok choy in extra virgin olive oil and garlic. (optional)
    • Serve immediately.

        Oh so you roast the cauliflower after you pulse it? Or you just roast regular florets?
