Thank you for sharing this recipe! This fried rice was so amazing, I had to stop myself from eating it all! My only issue was that shredding the cauliflower wasn’t very easy. But it was worth it (might try to shred in my food processor next time instead of by hand). Thank you! Oh and if you enjoyed the cauliflower as a healthy and yummy substitute, try making mashed fauxtatoes with cauliflower. Divine!

I made this last night, it is so good. I added chinese 5 spices and a bit of garlic. I think next time I will add some fresh ginger. My neighbor tried it and loved it. I had my son eating it until my husband told him it was cauliflower!!

This is actually pretty good, for being low carb!! :) I gave it 4 stars because I tweaked mine a little to give it more flavor. I added some green onions and minced garlic, and the 2nd time I made it I added a tiny bit of Thai sweet chili sauce, which gave it just a little bit of spice. My husband really liked it too!
