I had been interested to try cauliflower rice, AKA “riced” cauliflower, for quite awhile. It can be made at home using a head of cauliflower, finely grated, then steamed. However, with an infant feeding for 45 minutes out of every 2 hours, prep time is severely lacking. Luckily Trader Joe’s had these in stock, and I bought a few bags prior to welcoming our son.<\/p>\n

I simply sprayed a pan with Spectrum-brand high-heat canola oil cooking spray, added diced mushrooms and two thirds of a bag of cauliflower rice (the nutrition label lists three servings per package, and I would say those are generously-sized servings). I stirfried the mushrooms and cauliflower rice for a few minutes until slightly brown, then added one scrambled egg plus one scrambled egg white, stirred to make a “fried rice”-type dish, and topped with chopped cilantro and chives. The only seasoning it needed was a little bit of salt and pepper.<\/p>\n
