5 from 3 votes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb of shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 head of cauliflower
  • 2 cups of fresh pineapple, diced (canned works well too)
  • 2 tbsp of avocado oil or olive oil
  • 1 tbsp of sesame oil
  • 4 green onions, sliced
  • 3 cloves of garlic
  • 1/4 cup of coconut aminos (I used The New Primal)
  • Salt and Pepper
  • 1/4 cup of chopped cilantro, to garnish

Instructions
 

  • Wash and dry cauliflower thoroughly and remove greens. Cut cauliflower into four pieces and use a box grater to grate the cauliflower, using the large blades. You would grate this just like you would grate cheese. The cauliflower should resemble rice. 
  • Season shrimp with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil or avocado oil to a large saute pan over medium heat. Once oil is warm, add shrimp and cook until opaque, about 5 minutes.
  • Once shrimp is no longer translucent, transfer to a place and set aside.
  • Add remaining tablespoon of olive oil or avocado oil and sesame oil to pan and heat. Add green onions and garlic to pan and cook for about 1 minute. Next, add riced cauliflower and cook, stirring frequently for about 5 minutes, or until cauliflower rice has softened. 
  • Add coconut aminos to rice and cook four about 1 minute.
  • Next, add pineapple and shrimp to cauliflower and stir to combine. Cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes. Garnish with cilantro and serve!
