Cauliflower Rice Stir-Fry
A quick and flavorful stir-fry recipe using expired but safe-to-consume frozen cauliflower rice.
Ingredients
- 2 cups expired frozen cauliflower rice
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 small zucchini, diced
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1/2 cup sliced mushrooms
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce (optional)
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro (for garnish)
Instructions
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat.
Add the bell pepper, zucchini, broccoli, mushrooms, and garlic. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes, or until the vegetables are crisp-tender.
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.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce (if using), cornstarch mixture, and red pepper flakes (if using).
Pour the sauce over the cauliflower rice and vegetable mixture. Stir well to coat everything evenly.
Cook for an additional 2 minutes, or until the sauce thickens and coats the ingredients.
Remove from heat and garnish with chopped cilantro.
Serve hot and enjoy!
