Cauliflower Fried "Rice" with Leftover Ham is a great way to use up that leftover ham from the Holidays, made with riced cauliflower in place of rice to make it low-carb – delicious!

Ingredients

10 ounces leftover ham (diced)
1 medium head (about 24 oz cauliflower)
1 tbsp sesame oil
2 large eggs (beaten)
cooking spray
1/2 small onion (diced fine)
1/2 cup frozen peas and carrots
2 garlic cloves (minced)
5 scallions (whites and greens separated, sliced on angle)
3 tbsp soy sauce (or more to taste (use Tamari for Gluten Free))

Method

1
Remove the core of the cauliflower and coarsely chop into florets, then place in small batches about 1/4 of the cauliflower in a food processor and pulse until the cauliflower is small and has the texture of rice or couscous – don't over process or it will get mushy. Set aside and repeat with the remaining cauliflower.
2
Heat a large saute pan or nonstick wok over medium heat and spray with oil. Add the ham and cook until the edges are slightly browned and crips, 3 to 4 minutes. Set aside.
3
Spray again, add the eggs and cook, turning a few times until set; set aside.
4
Add the sesame oil and saute onions, scallion whites, peas and carrots and garlic about 3 to 4 minutes, or until soft. Raise the heat to high.
5
Add the cauliflower to the saute pan, mix and cook approximately 5 to 6 minutes, stirring frequently, until the cauliflower is slightly crispy on the outside but tender on the inside. Add soy sauce and egg and ham, cook 1 minute then remove from heat and mix in scallion greens.
