Instructions

1

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat.

2

Add the bell pepper, zucchini, broccoli, mushrooms, and garlic. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes, or until the vegetables are crisp-tender.

3

Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet and add the expired frozen cauliflower rice to the empty space. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, or until heated through.

4

In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce (if using), cornstarch mixture, and red pepper flakes (if using).

5

Pour the sauce over the cauliflower rice and vegetable mixture. Stir well to coat everything evenly.

6

Cook for an additional 2 minutes, or until the sauce thickens and coats the ingredients.
