1-2 cups leftover rice (optional)

5 minced garlic cloves

1 cup frozen vegetables

1 egg

1-2 tbsp olive oe avocado oil for frying

1 tbsp toasted sesame oil

Instructions

  1. Clean and prep your cauliflower - cut into small pieces

  3. Mince your garlic
  4. In medium-high heat, sauté your garlic until fragrant and add in the rice.
  5. Add in the rice. Break it up with your wooden spoon.
  6. If you’re not using leftover rice. This is the time to put in the cauliflower.
    SAVE 1 CUP OF CAULIFLOWER.
  7. Make a well in the middle of the pan and add a tiny bit more oil. Put the egg and scramble it.
  8. Season with Salt & Pepper

Notes

Cauliflower tends to get soggy when you add soy sauce. My trick is to save 1 cup of the riced cauliflower and cook it in the pan at the end of your cooking time. LAST 2 minutes. Right before you add your toasted sesame oil.
