If you're doing the Whole30 diet, then you know that there's a lot you can't eat while you're on it. One thing you can munch on? This savory cauliflower fried rice dish.

Ingredients
1 Tbsp ghee or coconut oil, split in two
1 large red onion, diced
4 medium carrots, shredded
10 cloves garlic, minced
3 heads of cauliflower, riced
1 1/2 tsp onion powder
3/4 tsp ground ginger
1 1/4 tsp black pepper
1 1 /4 tsp sea salt
1/3 cup coconut aminos
1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 tsp fish sauce
8 eggs, scrambled
Fresh parsley, chopped and green onions, sliced for topping

Directions:
Heat a large saute pan on medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes. Heat up ghee add diced onions and carrot. Cook until onion looks translucent. Add garlic cloves and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant. Add in riced cauliflower. Carefully break down the cauliflower with a wooden spoon or spatula. Cook the rice until it looks soft and tender. This can take anywhere between 5-7 minutes. Add in the spices until well combined. Stir in coconut aminos, apple cider vinegar and fish sauce. Cook on medium-high heat until the cauliflower rice reaches your desired doneness (this took me another 7-10 minutes!) Carefully stir in the scramble eggs. Stir for about 1 minute until everything has been well combined. Remove from the heat. Serve with your favorite meat, fish or with eggs for breakfast.

What do you get when you pair one trendy veggie (zucchini) with another (cauliflower)? This cauliflower rice bowl that packs major heat.

Ingredients:
1 head cauliflower, riced
1 zucchini, trimmed or cut into cubes
4 Tbsp olive oil
2 jalapenos, deseeded and chopped
6 spring onions, finely chopped
1/2 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 200C/400F degrees. Trim the leaves and stalks from the cauliflower and cut into florets. Make the cauliflower rice by either grating the florets, or using a food processor to blitz them. Place the cauliflower rice on a parchment paper lined baking tray and drizzle with half of the oil. Bake for 15 minutes, turning over half way through with a spoon or spatula. Heat half of the olive oil in a frying pan. Add the zucchini and cook for 5 - 8 minutes until slightly golden. Add the jalapeno and spring onions and cook for a further 5 minutes. Add the spices and stir thoroughly. Set aside. When the cauliflower rice is cooked, stir in the spicy zucchini mixture until all of the cauliflower is coated. Eat and enjoy!

Basic doesn't have to mean boring. This cauliflower rice recipe might be simple, but it has plenty of flavor.

Ingredients:
4 heaping cups small cauliflower pieces, riced
2 Tbsp olive oil
6-8 large cloves garlic, peeled and cut in half lengthwise
1 cup green onion, sliced
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Directions:
Cut the cauliflower, including the stems, into smallish same size pieces until you have 4 generous cups of cauliflower pieces.

Using the steel blade, process 2 cups of cauliflower pieces at a time in the food processor, buzzing it in short bursts until it's finely chopped enough to resemble rice, but slightly larger. (I use my beloved Cuisinart 7 Cup Food Processor for this, which does a great job.) If you're using a bag of cauliflower, just open the bag!

Peel garlic cloves and slice in half lengthwise. Chop enough green onions for the amount of cauliflower you're using. Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat until it feels hot when you hold your hand there; then add the garlic cloves and stir-fry until you smell garlic. As soon as you see the tiniest color change in the garlic, IMMEDIATELY remove the garlic and discard. (Don't let it brown or the garlic will leave a bitter taste.)

Add the cauliflower to the hot pan and season generously with salt and fresh-ground black pepper. Stir fry the cauliflower, turning it over often, until it's starting to soften and lose the raw taste, about 3-4 minutes. (Taste a little to see if it's done to your liking; I prefer it still slightly crisp.) Turn off the heat, stir in the green onions, and serve immediately.

Pro tip: Sub in store bought hummus to cut down on cooking time -- trust us, this cauliflower rice bowl will still taste just as delish!

Ingredients:
For cauliflower rice:
1 small head of cauliflower, riced
1 tsp oil
1 /2 small onion, finely chopped
1 tsp turmeric
Salt to taste
Dash of cayenne pepper
Generous dash of lemon or lime juice

For chickpeas and carrots:
15 oz can of chickpeas drained or 1 1 /2 cups cooked chickpeas
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp coriander
1 2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1 /4-1 /2 tsp cayenne pepper
3 /4 cup carrots, sliced

For hummus:
15 oz can chickpeas, drained (reserve water)
1 Tbsp tahini
2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
2-3 cloves roasted garlic
1-2 Tbsp lemon juice
1 4 tsp salt, or more to taste
1 4 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp freshly ground or crushed black pepper, divided, or more to taste

Directions:
For the rice: Grate the cauliflower or process in a food processor for a few seconds. I use a food processor. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onions and a pinch of salt and cook until translucent. Add turmeric and mix in for a few seconds. Add the riced cauliflower, salt and cayenne and mix in. Cover and cook for 4 to 6 minutes. The cauliflower will steam and cook through. Add a good dash of lemon and fluff the mixture. Taste and adjust salt, lemon, heat. Cover and let sit for another minute or so before serving.

For chickpeas and carrots: Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chickpeas and spices and toss to coat. Cook for a minute. Add carrots and 2 tbsp water. Cover and cook for 5 to 7 minutes or until carrots are cooked al dente. Add a dash of lemon if needed.

For hummus: Blend or process all the ingredients and 1/4 tsp black pepper until smooth. Add some reserved aquafaba(liquid from the can of chickpeas) if needed. Add aquafaba or water to half the batch to make thinner dressing like consistency. Taste and adjust salt, tang (lemon). Fold in the rest of the black pepper and use. Can be made ahead. Or use premade hummus and mix in black pepper to taste.

Assemble: Add a layer of baby spinach or other baby greens or lettuce to each bowl. Add a good helping of the spiced chickpeas, turmeric cauliflower rice and hummus. Drizzle thinned hummus and/or lemon juice all over. Garnish with black pepper and cilantro. Add other chopped veggies like tomatoes, cucumber etc, or add some warmed pita. Serve.
