Eating Clean: Cauliflower "Fried Rice"

21 day fix, 21 day fix extreme, 21 day fix dinner, budget friendly food, clean eating, cooking, dinner, healthy, healthy food, lose weight, Lose baby weight, portion control, sweating for the wedding,
I have officially given up brown rice!
Okay so I first saw this recipe on Facebook, then on Pinterest. At first I was like um, no there's absolutely no way that will remotely taste the same as the real deal. But I'm not the one to shy away from a challenge in the kitchen (just like here). So I wrote down my ingredients and set off to the store. Y'all...I made this last night and it was UH-MAZE-BALLS! Not even joking, I could have ate the entire batch I made. (Which was about seven portions too many!) So lets get to the fun stuff! 

Ingredients:
*1 Tablespoon + 1 teaspoon sesame seed oil
*2 eggs
*1 small head of cauliflower
*1 lb bag of mixed vegetables
*1/2 chopped onion
*3 cloves garlic, minced
*salt & pepper
*3 Tablespoons liquid aminos (or low sodium soy sauce)  

Directions:
1. Combine 1 teaspoon sesame seed oil with eggs in a bowl and whisk to combine, set aside.
2. Chop cauliflower into big chunks then use a food processor with grating attachment (I don't have one of these so I just used a box grater and grated the chunks that way). 
3. Heat the 1 Tablespoon of sesame seed oil in large skillet (or wok) over high heat.
4. Add cauliflower, onion, frozen vegetables and stir fry for about 3-4 minutes.
5. Add garlic, salt and pepper and continue to stir fry for about 30 seconds.
6. Push mixture to the sides of skillet to make a hole in the center and pour egg mixture into the middle and scramble.
7. Add liquid aminos and toss to mix.
8. Serve and enjoy!

PLEASE let me know if you try this and how much you love it!
