Ingredients
- 24 ounces cauliflower florets
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce reduced sodium
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon ginger freshly grated
- ¼ teaspoon white pepper
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil divided
- 2 egg beaten, large
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 onion diced
- 6 ounces broccoli chopped, florets
- 2 carrot peeled and grated
- ½ cup corn frozen

Instructions
- To make the cauliflower rice, pulse cauliflower in the bowl of a food processor until it resembles rice, about 2-3 minutes; set aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger and white pepper; set aside.
- Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a medium skillet over low heat. Add eggs and cook until cooked through, about 2-3 minutes per side, flipping only once. Let cool before dicing into small pieces; set aside.
- Heat remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium high heat. Add garlic and onion to the skillet, and cook, stirring often, until onions have become translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Stir in broccoli, carrots, corn and peas, and cook, stirring constantly, until vegetables are tender, about 3-4 minutes.
- Stir in cauliflower, eggs, green onions and soy sauce mixture. Cook, stirring constantly, until heated through and the cauliflower is tender, about 3-4 minutes.
- Serve immediately, garnished with sesame seeds, if desired.
Notes
- 24 ounces of cauliflower florets equals about 5 cups, facilitating accurate measurement.
