This is not the first time cauliflower fried rice has shown its face around these parts, and it probably won’t be the last because #obsessed. I first met cauliflower rice when I made this cauliflower fried rice a few years ago – but today, we’re taking it up a notch. Or down? Down so we can go up? Basically, we’re making this as simple as possible so it can be a 15 Minute Meal Prep recipe, and also! adding the best baked tofu of your life. Here’s what we’re working with:
cauliflower rice frozen vegetables garlic, ginger soy sauce, sesame oil, Sriracha eggs TOFU
If you start the tofu process right away, it can bake while you get the fried rice going. And the tofu is kind of optional, yes, sure… but also kind of not. I studied up on this method from Cookie + Kate and it was literally life changing. SO GOOD. Best tofu I’ve ever baked. Stays crispy and chewy and I gave it a little extra browning, because that’s how I roll. You can also make it other ways (see here). Happy lunches ahead, you guys. VERY. HAPPY. LUNCHES.
