AIP Shrimp Fried Rice
"This aip shrimp fried rice dish is so fresh and flavorful you’ll never miss takeout again! Traditional shrimp fried rice is actually not too far off from our version. Only the rice and cooking oil are modified to keep you healthy and happy. For the rice, you’ll be using cauliflower, the old standby. Chop it in your food processor, and make sure you get the water out – nobody likes soggy “rice”! For the cooking oil, you’ll use avocado oil. Feel free to use it anywhere you’d normally use olive or vegetable oil."
