Cauliflower fried rice has been on my list to make for quite some time. We experimented with cauliflower a while back when we made cauliflower couscous and cauliflower pizza crust. (Good thing my husband loves cauliflower right?!!) After a recent trip to Harmon’s Grocery Store and seeing their selection of seasonal produce and ethnic food items, I picked up a few things and got to work!
I’m
super grateful for what Harmon’s provides our city with. Besides great selection of produce, they have foods for a variety of diets and food restrictions. This recipe is gluten free, vegan, and vegetarian (and also enjoyable to those who eat meat and wheat!) At Harmon’s they specialize in providing something for everyone. With their giant store downtown, they are focusing on healthy, gluten free, clean food with a belief that food is fuel which directly impacts your health and well being.
A few items to note at Harmon’s – their fresh squeezed juices (made
with oranges picked within 2 weeks), fresh never frozen fish, the heathy check out lanes (no candy bars and lots of great quick and healthy options to go), the ready made salads like their Kale Iron Man Salad or Cranberry Quinoa Salad (great for healthy lunches).

Though Harmon’s has been around for over 83 years, they continue to take a modern spin on things so I think they’ll be proud of the cauliflower fried rice I’ve created –
something maybe a little different but so easy to enjoy. I hope you enjoy it too!
