Here is a recipe for Gluten, Egg & Vinegar Free Fried Riced Cauliflower. An easy, quick, tasty and, vegan side dish to accompany your Asian dishes.
The other day, I went grocery shopping and found a bag of Cauliflower Rice on display. So I decided to try it to see how it tastes. The taste turned out to be pretty good for a faux rice. So I decided to share this Gluten, Egg & Vinegar Free Fried Riced Cauliflower recipe.
I took the recipe on the bag as guideline and added my own spin to it. I used my basic go to recipe for fried rice and mix it with instructions on the bag.
Add your favorite protein to make it a complete meal or check out the following dishes to serve with the cauliflower:
Making riced cauliflower egg free
I have not used eggs in this recipe so that it is egg free. If you are OK with eggs you can add them for some protein in the dish.
Vinegar free cauliflower rice
As my children cannot have vinegar I have used lemon juice instead of vinegar to make it vinegar free. Substitute 1 tablespoon of lemon juice for each tablespoon of vinegar.
What vegetables to use
I have used just onions, green onions and carrots. You can also add your favorite veggies such as corn or peas as well as cabbage. You can use both fresh or frozen.
How to cut the vegetables
Chop the vegetables roughly. I have used mini carrots so I sliced them instead of chopping.

This is perfect for Whole30. Just swap out the soy for fish sauce of coconut aminos. Thanks for sharing.
great tip, thanks
This is great for lowering carbs. I’ve only had cauliflower rice a couple of times and really enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing, pinning for later.

I’ve not made any in ages. I like that you added veg. I usually just add spices.
I made this twice to bring to my sons for a side dish we all love it, the additions make this taste exactly like rice we love the less calories and health benefits!
nice, thank you
This is the perfect side dish! I’m in love with all the flavors in this dish, and I love that it pairs so nicely with just about everything!
What a quick, easy and healthy side dish. Will go perfectly with any protein.
Made this recipe a few nights ago and we love it! I love being able to use healthy alternatives and it’s so tasty! Definitely making this a lot more!

I love cauliflower rice and have made it from scratch (it was a lot of work), so it’s good to know you can buy it too! This recipe sounds delicious!
