Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
  2. Step 2: Add 1/4 cup chopped onion and 1 cup sliced mushrooms, then cook for 4-5 minutes until mushrooms are tender and onion is translucent, stirring occasionally.
  3. Step 3: Add 2 cloves minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
  4. Step 4: Push vegetable mixture to one side of the skillet and crack 2 large eggs into the empty space. Cook for 2-3 minutes until egg whites are set but yolks remain runny.
  5. Step 5: Scramble eggs with vegetables for 1 minute, then add 2 cups riced cauliflower, 1 tablespoon coconut aminos, and 1 teaspoon sesame oil. Stir to combine.
  6. Step 6: Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until cauliflower is tender but still slightly firm and mixture is heated through. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Step 7: Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with 2 tablespoons chopped green onions.
