House special fried rice

Fried rice is one of my favorite treats! I love it so much and often long for it. When we order it at a Chinese restaurant, we usually get the house special fried rice, which is made with beef, shrimp, pork, and chicken. There is never enough
We order egg whites and vegetables in the dish to make it a main course, so I set out to make it myself with a healthier twist. This has 35 grams of protein per serving, and the cauliflower adds a healthy dose of vegetables. For more of my favorite fried rice recipes, try my Spicy Shrimp Fried Rice, the Low Carbohydrate Fried Cauliflower Rice, or the Vegetarian Fried Edamame Asian Rice.

Fried rice ingredients:

My version uses frozen brown rice (I love Trader Joes) which is so handy and even sneaks into some cauliflower rice for extra veg that no one can pick out. And good news – my cauliflower-like husband never noticed. It's also loaded with shrimp, steak, and chicken, as well as egg for egg white.

Fried rice sauce:

I use soy sauce, rice vinegar and sesame oil as a homemade rice sauce. You can serve the rice with sriracha if you like it spicy. This dish is also flavored with spring onions, fresh ginger and garlic.

Variations:

• If you don't have frozen rice, you can cook your own. Cool it down thoroughly before preparing the fried rice – cold rice fries are better than warm rice.
• Use tamari instead of soy sauce to make the fried rice gluten-free.
• If you don't want to use all three proteins, skip one and double the other.
• Add some frozen peas for an extra vegetable.
• Top with sriracha to add some warmth.
