Cauliflower rice is so versatile and is the perfect replacement for regular rice for anyone who might be carb-conscious or if you don’t feel like waiting an hour for some rice to cook. Even if you’re not too fond of the taste of this veggie, the flavors of this dish mask any traces of cauliflower. Let your imagination guide you while you prepare this raw fried rice and incorporate your favorite vegetables to the rice. That’s the advantage of creating raw food recipes, they are incredibly flexible and have plenty of wiggle room for modifications! I love taking my left-overs from the week and throwing them into the mixing bowl in a dish like this!
