Takeout Hack: Cauliflower Fried Rice

Drop the take-out menu and whip up a lighter, healthier version of classic fried rice for dinner tonight. Instead of using starchy rice for this one, we pulsed raw cauliflower florets in the food processor and voila! — an incredible low carb, low cal, rice substitute was born (and it only took seconds to make!). Cauliflower rice has done it again. Make this quick and easy meal, loaded with colorful crunchy veggies, which is perfect for your next meatless Monday!

Ingredients:
Serves 6
— 1 large head of cauliflower

— 1/3 cup soy sauce

— 1 Tablespoon sesame oil

— 1 1/2 tablespoons Sriracha

— 1 Tablespoon pickled ginger, finely chopped

— 3 Tablespoons vegetable oil, divided (or any other high-heat neutral cooking oil)

— 3 large eggs

— 1 medium onion, diced

— 3 garlic cloves, finely chopped

— 2 cups broccoli florets, chopped into bite-sized pieces

— 1/2 cup shredded carrots

— 1 cup corn kernels, fresh or frozen (if frozen, thawed)

— 1 cup frozen peas, thawed

— 1/2 cup scallions, thinly sliced

— 3 Tablespoons sesame seeds

Instructions:

1. Cut cauliflower into florets and pulse in a food processor 5-6 times, or until the cauliflower resembles grains of rice. Be sure not to pulse too many times. Set aside. Alternatively, you can use a box grater to achieve the same results. In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, sesame oil, sriracha and chopped pickled ginger and set aside.

2. In a large skillet or wok, heat the oil over a high flame. Once the oil is hot, crack the eggs into the pan and scramble using a wooden spoon. Allow the eggs to cook through until golden; transfer the cooked eggs to a plate/bowl and set aside.

3. Heat the remaining two tablespoons of oil in the same skillet. Add the diced onion and chopped garlic, tossing occasionally. Once the onion is soft (about 2-3 minutes), add the chopped broccoli and cook for another two minutes. Once the broccoli turns bright green, add the shredded carrots, corn and peas and cook for another two minutes, stirring occasionally.

4. Once all of the veggies are tender, add the cauliflower “rice,” scrambled eggs, soy sauce mixture, scallions and sesame seeds into the pan. Carefully mix all of the ingredients together and cook until heated through (about one minute). Remove from the heat and serve.

There are more than a few things to love about Gilmore Girls: strong female friendships, compelling families, romance, the ULTIMATE cozy vibes. Every since time "Where You Lead" starts playing, it's like drinking a huge mug of apple cider, or getting a warm hug from my mom. It doesn't matter how many times I watch the series either, it always makes me feel more relaxed than I did before sitting down.

If you love the Gilmore Girls vibes, and want to find some more comfort shows to add into your rotation (whether you just finished your GG rewatch, or you're craving something familiar yet new), check out these 10 shows like Gilmore Girls! They feel like a warm hug too :).

The best cozy TV shows like Gilmore Girls, for anyone who'd rather be in Stars Hollow.

Firefly Lane (2021) — Streaming On Netflix

Netflix

Just like Sookie and Lorelai, Tully and Kate are inseparable best friends, and the older they get, the stronger their relationship gets. And just like Gilmore Girls, this series covers tons of topics that we all deal with in our own lives: love, loss, and career struggles. Plus it proves just how much strength we can draw from our own relationships!

Firefly Lane stars Katherine Heigl, Sarah Chalke, Ben Lawson, Beau Garrett, and Roan Curtis.

Sweet Magnolias (2020) — Streaming On Netflix

Netflix

We get another small town drama with Sweet Magnolias, which follows lifelong BFF's Maddie, Helen, and Dana Sue. The women lean on each other during tough times in their families and their business lives, and just like Gilmore Girls, this show gets you just as invested in the teen plotlines as the adult ones.

Sweet Magnolias stars JoAnna Garcia Swisher, Brooke Elliott, Heather Headley, Chris Klein, Jamie Lynn Spears, and Justin Bruening.

The Summer I Turned Pretty (2022) — Streaming On Amazon Prime Video

Amazon Studios

If you miss the age of TV where we focused on relationships instead of magic or treasure hunts, then The Summer I Turned Pretty is for you. Belly, her brother Steven, and their mom visit Cousins Beach, and the Fishers, every summer. Belly loves Cousins, but not as much as she loves Conrad Fisher. And her first summer on the island as a young woman is full of dances, romance, and the ups and downs of adolescence.

The Summer I Turned Pretty stars Lola Tung, Christopher Briney, Gavin Casalegno, Sean Kaufman, Rachel Blanchard, and Jackie Chung.

Virgin River (2019) — Streaming On Netflix

Netflix

Nurse practitioner Melinda is looking for a fresh start, and moves from Los Angeles to the small California town of Virgin River. She's hoping to get in tune with life, and herself, again, but as Lorelai and Rory can attest to, small town life is anything but uncomplicated.

Ginny & Georgia (2021) — Streaming On Netflix

Netflix

Nobody does mother-daughter relationships like Gilmore Girls, but Ginny & Georgia comes close. And things between Ginny and Georgia get infinitely more tense when Ginny realizes her mom is hiding a dark secret.

Ginny & Georgia stars Antonia Gentry, Brianne Howey, Scott Porter, Diesel La Torraca, Jennifer Robertson, and Felix Mallard.

Jane The Virgin (2014) — Streaming On Netflix

The CW

Jane Villanueva’s life gets totally turned upside down by an unexpected pregnancy (especially since she's never had sex). But while the revelation throws her romantic life into chaos, it makes her relationships with her mother and grandmother stronger than ever. It totally reminds me of Lorelai and Rory, and will give you the perfect amount of feel good emotions. Just like Gilmore Girls!

Jane the Virgin stars Gina Rodriguez, Justin Baldoni, Andrea Navedo, Yael Grobglas, and Ivonne Coll.

Hart of Dixie (2011) — Streaming On Prime Video

The CW

Doctor Zoe relocates from a big city to the small town of Bluebell (which sounds a little like Lorelai leaving Hartford for Stars Hollow, TBH!). Zoe has to figure out firsthand what life in the South is like, including everything from fake niceties to handsome Southern gentlemen.

Hart of Dixie stars Rachel Bilson, Jaime King, Cress Williams, Wilson Bethel, Tim Matheson, and Scott Porter.

Bunheads (2012) — Streaming On Hulu

ABC Family/Disney

Never Have I Ever stars Maitreyi Ramakrishnan, Poorna Jagannathan, Darren Barnet, Jaren Lewison, and Richa Moorjani.
