Cauliflower Fried Rice, an easy and nutritious one-skillet meal

This meal is a family favorite. It’s nutritious, delicious and easy to make. This meal comes together very quickly and as a result, I like to have all the ingredients ready and prepared before I start the cooking process.

This meal also contains Vitamin C from the cauliflower and the kale. Hence making it another meal I like to prepare when my kids get sick to help support their immune system. To learn more about the meals my kids eat when they get sick, please refer to my What My Sick Toddler Eats In A Day blog post.

I also have a video tutorial showing how I make my Cauliflower Fried Rice.

These are the ingredients I like to use to make the sauce.

Ingredients

Ingredients:

Get the rest of the ingredients prepped and ready. Mince the garlic. Measure out the coconut aminos (or soy sauce), the sesame oil and the maple syrup (I like to combine all 3 together and mix to combine). Measure out the frozen corn and peas. Wash, peel and small dice the carrot. Small dice the kale (or spinach) and cilantro.

To a hot pan, add 1 tablespoon of oil and add the 2 beaten eggs. Cook to scramble the egg. Remove from pan and set it aside

Add 2 tablespoons of oil to the pan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic. Cook for a few seconds.
