Cauliflower “Fried Rice”

I love this cauliflower “fried rice” recipe even better than real fried rice because it’s bursting with flavors, is super easy to make, tastes delicious and it’s healthy!

Cauliflower rice is the next best thing since sliced bread! If you missed that reference…. like my little sister who stared blankly ahead at the comment, let me fill you in.

There was once a time when bread was not sold pre-sliced at the store. So then companies started selling sliced bread and it was a hit, who knew! Thus the expression “this is the best thing since sliced bread” was born. Now that I have bridged the generational gap and taught an ounce of history. Ha. Lets all celebrate this beautiful reinvention of the wheel that is cauliflower rice.
