Rainbow Veggie Cauliflower “Rice”

March 1, 2017 by Betsy Leave a Comment

Cauliflower has gotten popular all of a sudden in the healthy food world. I experimented and came up with Rainbow Veggie Cauliflower "Rice."

I am interested in healthy food and lifestyle. I read about it all the time. Sometimes, I even get confused regarding what in the heck I should eat! It is overwhelming when you look at all of the health claims out there. We just have to get back to the basics. More veggies. Yep, this is a great place to start. Start asking yourself, what veggies can I have with this meal? I love veggies a ton and so does my family, so I usually don't have to sneak them in. However, we all get bored with the same steamed broccoli and sautéed kale.

I have heard so much about this famous cauliflower "rice" which really isn't rice at all. I was intrigued so I tried it out the other night. I. Am. In. Love. For me, carbs, dairy and sugar lead me down a dangerous slope of weight gain, mood swings, poor digestion and chronic sinus issues. Therefore, I try my hardest to avoid or at least minimize my consumption of these foods. This cauliflower "rice" craves my rice and Chinese food hankerings while avoiding those foods that make me feel not so good. Hidden plus - my kids loved it too. They also love my Veggie Lover's Polenta Pizza when we do cheat a little on Friday nights while binge watching Fuller House on Netflix. It is awesome, right?

Rainbow Veggie Cauliflower "Rice"
Recipe Type: dinner, veggie
Author: Betsy Moore from BMoore Healthy
Ingredients
  • 1 medium-sized head of cauliflower
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil or olive oil
  • 1/2 cut cooked beets, cubed
  • 2 carrots, cubed
  • 3 stalks celery, chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 2 beaten eggs
  • 3 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
  • 6 green onions, minced
Instructions
  1. MAKE THE "RICE": Shred cauliflower using the largest side of a cheese grater OR use a food processor and pulse until cauliflower resembles rice.
  2. FRY: Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large pan. Add the carrots, celery, garlic and beets and stir fry for about 5 minutes. Add the cauliflower, peas, and remaining oil to the pan; cook the cauliflower quickly. Try not to make it mushy.
  3. TOPPINGS: Push the veggies to one side and fry the eggs. Mix into the "rice." Stir in the soy sauce and green onions just before serving.

What was so beautiful about this recipe is that the beets made the "rice" this amazing pink color which my two little girls totally adored. Therefore, they ate up all their veggies. The hubs liked it too but he needed some pork chops on the side. Fair enough for me.
