Instructions
- First, heat a medium-sized skillet over medium heat. Add the oil, then turmeric, cumin, scallion, ginger, and carrot. Let them cook for a minute or two, until fragrant.
- Next, stir in the broccoli and garlic. Cook a minute or two before adding the cauliflower rice. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes (if using frozen cauliflower, put a lid on while cooking). Season with black pepper and coconut aminos or salt to taste.
- Meanwhile, scramble the eggs in a separate pan. Heat a small pan over medium heat. Add the oil, then eggs, and cook, stirring occasionally. Once cooked through, remove to a plate.
- When the veggie rice is done, mix in the scrambled eggs.
