Chinese fried rice was one of my favorite dishes, even the greasy and unhealthy take-out version. When I started eating a low carb diet and fell in love with cauliflower, it was one of the first low carb cauliflower recipes that became a weekly staple.

This low carb cauliflower rice recipe has 8 net carbs but if you want it for a keto side dish, you can remove the peas, carrots, and onions. 

If you’re a fried rice lover, you can play around with the flavors too. Add a little ginger to spice things up, add more or less red pepper, or even fry it a little longer to get a little crispiness on the bottom.

It’s a delicious and easy recipe that I know you’ll enjoy. The best part is that it tastes like rice without the carbs!

HOW DO YOU MAKE CAULIFLOWER RICE?

It’s an easy process that only takes a few minutes. You’ll need the cauliflower and a food processor. If you don’t have a food processor, a grater will work fine but it will take a bit more time.

First, you cut the cauliflower into florets and then place a few pieces at a time in the food processor. Pulse it a few times until it resembles rice. Don’t put too much in the food processor as it will over-process it.

If you want to skip the process of using fresh cauliflower to make this cauliflower rice recipe, you can buy it pre-cut and bagged in the produce section as well as frozen.

But if you want a more delicious and nutritious version, you should try making it yourself. The pre-cut  variety also tends to spoil faster.
