Ingredients

  • Small onion yellow/sweet/white onion - any one is fine, diced
  • 3 tbsp sesame oil
  • 2 bags frozen riced cauliflower total of 24 oz
  • 1 c matchstick carrots
  • 1-2 c frozen broccoli small florets
  • 1 c edamame beans without shells
  • 1 c frozen peas
  • 1 c diced pineapple frozen is fine - I almost always use frozen
  • ½ tsp ground ginger
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • 4 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp rice or white wine vinegar
  • Salt to taste
  • 2 eggs
  • Lightly chopped cashews for topping

Instructions

  • Saute onions in sesame oil over med to med-high heat in large skillet until soft - about 5-8 min.
  • Add frozen cauliflower - cook 10 min, stirring occasionally.
  • Add carrots & frozen broccoli florets - cook 5-7 more min, stirring regularly
  • Add peas & edamame & pineapple chunks (I usually make these a little smaller before adding them, but if you're in a hurry, you don't have to) - cook 5 more min, stirring regularly.
  • Stir in spices, soy sauce, and vinegar & cook for a couple more minutes.
  • Make a well in the middle of the pan for the eggs; add eggs and use the spatula to scramble them. Mix them in with the rest of the ingredients and cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until eggs are fully cooked.
  • Stir in cashews.
  • Remove from heat and serve into bowls! ENJOY!

Notes

I suggest that the serving size of this recipe is 4-6, but that's if you're making it as the main (and only) dish. If you're serving something alongside this, it could easily stretch to 8 servings.
You can add in leftover chicken, ground beef, or any other leftover meat you need to use up. I think we've even used leftover porkchops and shredded pork in this before!
This makes DELICIOUS leftovers. You can easily double the recipe to feed a crowd or to make more to reheat for lunch/dinner the next day.
