Spruce up your cauliflower rice with hearty veggies, crispy bacon bits, and a savory sunny-side up egg!
This low-carb fried rice is bound to be one of your favorite meals. Made with broccoli, bacon, and cauliflower, it’s a healthier alternative to traditional versions and comes with a lot more veggies and vitamins. Serve it as a light lunch or side dish whenever you’re in the mood for takeout.

Cauliflower is one of the easiest ways to satisfy your cravings for rice. Not only does it nix the grains, but it also soaks up all the juices and seasonings you add to it (making it one versatile veggie). For easy prep, you can buy it pre-made from the supermarket or quickly grind it up at home with your food processor.

The sautéed broccoli and crispy bacon bits offer fiber and protein while the coconut aminos replaces soy sauce for a natural gluten-free option. To make things even better, we finish by adding a fried egg on top and chopped green onions for garnish. (If green onions aren’t your thing, you can also swap them out for fresh parsley instead).

To get started, fry the bacon slices in a large skillet until crispy on both sides. Set the bacon aside and cut it into small bite-sized pieces. Transfer the bacon fat to a small bowl and keep it handy for the next few steps.

Next, return to the skillet and turn the heat to medium. Add one tablespoon of bacon fat and toss in the diced onions and red bell peppers. Sauté until tender, then add the broccoli florets with an extra tablespoon of bacon fat. Stir well to coat and continue cooking for three more minutes.

When the florets begin to soften, add the riced cauliflower and coconut aminos into the pan. Mix well with a wooden spoon and continue cooking for another two minutes, allowing the cauliflower to soften.

Then, divide the cauliflower fried rice between two bowls and top with a sunny-side up egg. Sprinkle the chopped bacon bits on top and garnish with chopped green onions. When finished, serve and enjoy immediately!
