Vegetable Cauliflower Fried Rice Recipe
Vegetable fried rice gets amped up with cauliflower, a cruciferous vegetable, instead of rice in this cauliflower fried rice recipe.
This is a marriage of two of my favorite foods: fried rice and cauliflower. The result is a hearty Asian dish loaded with heart healthy, cancer-fighting cauliflower. My family loves to eat Asian food on Sundays and this is a deliciously simple fried rice recipe that comes together in just a few minutes. I’m always looking for plant-based, Asian recipes that are on the healthy side and I scored the jackpot with this Vegetable Cauliflower “Fried Rice” recipe.
Cauliflower is an inexpensive superfood. It has glucosinolates, which help lower your risk of cancer by neutralizing carcinogens in the body as well as vitamin K, which is important for bone health. It also has vitamin C, a nutrient that the body needs for heart health.
