Frozen Cauliflower Rice
For this cauliflower chicken fried rice recipe, I used a frozen bag of Cauliflower Medley Riced Veggies. I love that it has green peas, onions, carrots and green onions already in it. I sometimes add a little of my own chopped onion and garlic to this recipe, this is optional of course. Trader Joe’s also had a great Cauliflower Rice. I recently talked about it in my favorite Trader Joe’s Healthy Food items. You can also use any bag of frozen cauliflower rice or make your own. This just saves a little time and no mess is involved.
Liquid Aminos
Now for the sauce, I used Liquid Aminos. This stuff is a gluten-free healthier alternative to soy sauce. This salt-free seasoning sauce is made from soy and water. If you are doing the Whole 30 use coconut aminos.
How’s this for easy? Trust me, you are going to love this low carb healthy dish! It’s perfect to make for meal prepping too so you can eat throughout the week. After you taste this recipe you won’t be ordering Chinese take-out anymore.
