Veggie Stir Fry over Cauliflower Fried Rice

Mid week and one day closer to Friday. Yay! After what I thought was an overwhelming amount of produce on Sunday, I am now almost through everything I picked up at the Farmers Market. So, what to cook? Stir fry! What I love about a stir fry is that you can basically use whatever veggies or protein that you have on hand. For this Veggie Stir Fry over Cauliflower Fried Rice recipe, I used spinach, broccoli, and swiss chard, but you can use whatever veggies you have and your family likes. I also decided to go low carb by using cauliflower instead of rice.

The sauce recipe below is my “go to” stir fry sauce. It’s easy to make and so much healthier than the bottled sauces which can have a ton of ingredients and sodium. I’ve learned to read labels like a detective lol. It is incredible the amount of sodium, sugar, and artificial ingredients are in things you wouldn’t even think of! But, if I’m making my own version, I want it to be easy and FAST!

The stir fry was fast, healthy, delicious and kid approved. Mom for the win!

How to:

-Heat 2 Tablespoons of coconut oil over medium-high heat. Add the ginger and garlic, and sauté for 1 minute. Add carrots and cook for 3 minutes. Stir in the corn, peas, and the cauliflower into the pan and stir to combine ingredients.
