1 Egg
1 Bag Bag of frozen Trader Joes Riced Cauliflower or a head of cauliflower, chopped up and “riced” in a food processor. Allow it to sit on the counter for a couple of minutes so that it is slightly thawed (bang it a little to break up the chunks, you will need about 1½ c. chopped)

¼ c. Broccoli, chopped
1 c. frozen peas and carrots thawed

Garlic salt optional
Salt and pepper
HOW TO MAKE CAULIFLOWER FRIED RICE
Step 1: In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium/high heat. Once hot, add the onions and saute until tender. Then, add the peas along with the carrots and broccoli. Cook further until soft.
Step 2: To the pan, add the frozen or fresh riced cauliflower. Stir well and cook for a few minutes more until the cauliflower is no longer frozen.
Step 3: Then, drizzle in about 2 tbsp soy sauce and stir well.
Step 4: To one side of the pan, slide the rice. On the other side of the pan, scramble the egg. Stir in the rice once the egg is cooked along with more soy sauce.
Step 5: Season with salt, pepper, and garlic salt to taste.
Step 6: Serve the Cauliflower Fried Rice right away. Enjoy!
