Cauliflower Rice has such a bad rep and you know what?! I’m sick of it. This Whole30 Kimchi Fried Rice is about to change everything you know.

Before I talk about this kimchi fried rice, we need to set the record straight. And I’m here to do it. So if you have been living in a world where your cauliflower rice is soggy, mushy, and just plain gross I’m sorry, but you have been doing it wrong.

First, you get your pan as hot as the sun. Which is pretty damn hot. Add your oil and wait until you see it smoke (this is the MOST important part). Now add you’re cauliflower rice and fry it.

There you have it, that is how to cook cauliflower rice.

The same technique goes for this Whole30 kimchi fried rice. And you are going to absolutely love it. The first reason being, the kimchi of course. Cauliflower rice pretty much takes on any flavor, which makes it a delicious little flavor sponge waiting to absorb all of life’s flavors. Kimchi is the perfect addition to cauliflower rice, it gives the dish an umami exerience.

This is my favorite Whole30 Kimchi!

Kimchi is a fermented Korean side dish. Because it is fermented it has probiotic qualities; this makes it great for digestion. Kimchi is also high in fiber, iron, and calcium. So basically, if you have not tried this spice bomb, now is the time.

Breakfast, lunch, or dinner?!

That’s right, this whole30 kimchi fried rice is great for all of the above. And it’s done in less than 15 minutes. Which hello, a 15 minute dinner? Sign me up. Feel free to add chicken or ground beef for added protein, because yum. Personally, I’m good with the eggs.
