Ingredients
  

  • 1 Red or Purple Bell Pepper Diced
  • 3 Large Carrots Sliced
  • 1/2 Medium onion Diced
  • 1 Jalapeno Deseeded and diced (optional)
  • 1.5 cups Cabbage Shredded
  • 2 Cloves garlic Minced
  • 3 green onions Diced
  • 1/4 Cup Green Peas Fresh or Frozen
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 Pound shrimp Peeled and Deveined
  • 1 Cup Cauliflower Rice
  • 1 Cup Brown or White Rice Cooked, preferably day old
  • 1 Teaspoon Sesame Oil
  • 1 Tablespoon Sambal (Thai Chili Paste)
  • 4 Tablespoons Low Sodium Soy Sauce
  • 2 Tablespoons Grapeseed oil

Method
 

  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of Grapeseed oil (or other oil with high smoke point) in wok or skillet over high heat.
  2. Whisk eggs in small bowl and then add to wok. Using a spatula, break up the egg until well cooked. Set aside.
  3. Next, add onions, peppers, jalapeno, and carrots. Stir occasionally to prevent burning and cook for about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Next, add garlic and cabbage and continue to stir occasionally until cabbage has wilted slightly, about 2-3 minutes.
  5. While the vegetables are cooking, whisk together the sesame oil, soy sauce, and sambal in a small bowl.
  6. Add half of the sauce to the vegetables and continue stirring for another 2-3 minutes.
  7. Next, add in the cauliflower rice (you can use all cauliflower rice if you prefer). Allow to cook for 3-4 minutes giving time for some of the sauce to reduce.
  8. Next, add in pre-cooked brown/white rice (if using) and shrimp and remaining sauce. Cook for about 5 minutes until shrimp are pink.
  9. Lastly, add in the frozen peas, green onions, and scrambled eggs. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, stirring to combine well.
  10. Top with sesame seeds, green onions, and hot mustard!
