Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large wok or nonstick frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring often, until it becomes soft and translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the frozen vegetables and shrimp and cook, continuing to stir, until the shrimp begins to turn pink and opaque, or another 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for another 30 seconds.
- Use a wooden spoon or rubber spatula to move the vegetable mixture to one side of the pan. On the other side of the pan, add the beaten eggs and cook them, stirring constantly, until they are scrambled, about 2 minutes. Once the eggs are scrambled, mix them with the vegetables and then add the cauliflower rice, soy sauce and sriracha. Cook, stirring constantly, until the cauliflower rice softens, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn off the heat and stir in the green onions.
- This dish can be served immediately or refrigerated, covered, for 3 to 4 days. It can be enjoyed either hot or cold.

CAULIFLOWER "FRIED RICE" WITH SHRIMP AND EDAMAME
This is a great recipe for the times you want the flavor and satisfaction of fried rice without a lot of the carbs. You can find riced cauliflower fresh or frozen at the market or make it yourself at home. If you're going vegetarian, sub out the oyster sauce with vegetarian oyster sauce or mushroom soy sauce. Also, sub out the chicken powder with sugar. If you want to add meat, just slice it thin and add it to the pan first until almost cooked through, then add the cauliflower.

Steps:
- Heat a large skillet, saute pan or wok over high heat, then add the oil and garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
- Stir in the shrimp and cook, tossing constantly, until the shrimp are cooked about halfway through, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Move the shrimp to one side of the skillet; add the egg to the other side and immediately stir in the riced cauliflower. Using the back of a spatula or spoon press the cauliflower into the egg in small circles until coated and solidified with egg. Fold and repeat until the riced cauliflower is completely coated and heated through. Add the sliced bell peppers and edamame and cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the soy sauce, oyster sauce, chicken powder and a pinch of salt, while stirring to coat.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning, if necessary, constantly stirring until the "fried rice" is heated through, about 1 more minute. Garnish with the scallions, diced bell peppers and white pepper.

Tips:
- Choose fresh, succulent shrimp: Look for shrimp that are firm, translucent, and have a mild, briny smell. Avoid shrimp that are discolored, slimy, or have a strong odor.
- Use high-quality, flavorful olive oil: Extra virgin olive oil is the best choice for sautéing shrimp, as it has a rich, fruity flavor that will complement the shrimp without overpowering it.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When sautéing shrimp, it's important to give them enough space in the pan so that they can cook evenly. If you overcrowd the pan, the shrimp will steam instead of sauté, and they will be less flavorful.
- Cook the shrimp just until they are opaque: Shrimp cook very quickly, so it's important to keep a close eye on them. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery, so as soon as they turn opaque, remove them from the pan.
- Season the shrimp generously: Shrimp have a mild flavor, so it's important to season them well. Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika to create a flavorful shrimp dish.
Conclusion:
Sautéed shrimp on cauliflower rice is a healthy, flavorful, and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The shrimp are cooked in a flavorful olive oil and seasoned with a variety of spices, while the cauliflower rice provides a healthy and low-carb alternative to traditional rice. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table, and it's a great way to get your daily dose of protein and vegetables.
