As someone who has to restrict gluten, I am always elated when I find a recipe that I can alter to be gluten free!!! Now in the case of ‘Shrimp Cauliflower Fried Rice’ rice is generally tolerated by those who have gluten sensitivities however, for me and I am only speaking on my own aftermath of eating regular old shrimp fried rice, that I often times feel very bloated and miserable for the rest of the day when I consume rice. So when I came across swapping out rice for cauliflower I knew without any doubt or hesitation I was definitely going to make this recipe!
This recipe took literally less than 30 minutes to prepare and make and it honestly looks like regular shrimp fried rice which is always a good thing. When you alter enough things in life to accommodate sensitives it is always refreshing and gratifying to make food that looks very close or exactly like the food you had to eliminate!
Ingredients:
- 1 Cauliflower Head
- 1 bag of mixed vegetables
- 1 bag of cooked shrimp
- 2 eggs
- 4-5 green onions
- 1 small white onion
- 2-4 Tablespoons sesame oil
- 2-4 teaspoons of Braggs Amino Acids All-purpose Soy sauce
Directions:
- Cut base of Cauliflower and remove the stems of the cauliflower. Cut the florets and place into your food processor or blender and pulse until you get a consistency of rice.
- Turn your stove on medium high heat add your sesame oil chopped white onion and cook until translucent. Next, add your bag of mixed vegetables and bag of shrimp cook until tender. I did have to drain a bit of the excess fluid. Finally, add your 2 eggs and mix until the onion and mixed vegetables and shrimp are blended
- Add your rice cauliflower and blend until everything is mixed together. I also added a little bit more sesame oil just for flavor
- When I served the Shrimp Cauliflower Fried Rice add your Amino Acid Soy sauce at your own risk a little bit goes a long way and if you add too much it is a bit salty
Enjoy!!
