Ingredients
- 1 large head Cauliflower

- 1 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 2 tablespoons Coconut aminos
- 1 tablespoon Toasted sesame seeds
- 2 Nori sheets

Directions
Step 1
Start by preparing the cauliflower rice. Wash and roughly chop the cauliflower, then place the florets in a food processor. Pulse until the cauliflower resembles the texture of rice. Be careful not to over-process.
Step 2
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add olive oil.
Step 3
Once the oil is warm, add the processed cauliflower rice to the skillet. Stir in the sea salt, garlic powder, and onion powder. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently until the cauliflower is tender but not mushy.
Step 4
While the cauliflower is cooking, stack the nori sheets and cut them into thin strips using kitchen scissors or a sharp knife.
Step 5
Once the cauliflower rice is cooked, reduce the heat to low and stir in the coconut aminos.
Step 6
Remove the skillet from the heat and gently fold in the nori strips and toasted sesame seeds.
Step 7
Garnish with chopped spring onions before serving.
Step 8
Serve immediately as a side dish or a light main course. Enjoy your Whole30-friendly meal full of flavor and texture.
