Ingredients

• 4 cups Cauliflower rice
• 8 ounces Sausage (preferably chicken or pork, sugar-free)
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 medium, diced Carrot
• 1 medium, diced Bell pepper (any color)
• 1 cup, trimmed and chopped Green beans
• 3 cloves, minced Garlic
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce (low sodium, or coconut aminos for gluten-free)
• 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 stalks, sliced Green onions
• 0.5 teaspoons (or to taste) Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons (or to taste) Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the sausage and cook until browned, breaking it into smaller pieces with a spatula, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the sausage from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil. Crack the eggs into the skillet and scramble them until just set, about 2-3 minutes. Remove the eggs from the skillet and set aside with the sausage.

Step 4

Wipe the skillet clean if necessary and add 1 tablespoon of sesame oil. Sauté the garlic, carrots, bell pepper, and green beans over medium-high heat until they soften slightly, about 4-5 minutes.

Step 5

Add the cauliflower rice to the skillet and stir well to combine with the vegetables. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the cauliflower rice is tender.

Step 6

Return the sausage and scrambled eggs to the skillet. Stir in the soy sauce (or coconut aminos), salt, and black pepper. Mix everything well and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.

Step 7

Remove the skillet from heat and garnish with sliced green onions before serving.

Step 8

Serve immediately and enjoy your low-carb vegetable and sausage fried rice!
