I love a good Stir Fry, not only is it totally customizable but it is really easy as well. You get to be creative and I personally feel that a Stir Fry is one of the best ways to eat healthy without feeling like you are sacrificing either taste or experience. For this version we wanted to switch it up a little bit by using riced cauliflower and going with steak instead of our usual choice of chicken or vegetarian.

- Sesame oil
- Onion
- Mushrooms
- Cabbage

Recipe Tips
- This recipe is designed to be a base recipe to use the veggies you have on hand or your favorite veggies of choice.
- I like to use sesame oil, as it adds to the authentic asian flavor but you could use your oil of choice.
- You could also switch up the seasonings to use what you love.
- I added some five spice that i have on hand. I also like to use cabbage as it adds bulk and not calories.
You could totally make this recipe have more or less servings, dependent on the amount of ingredients you have on hand.
You could sub leftover quinoa or leftover rice in for the cauliflower.
