Grain-Free “Fried Rice” with Walnuts


Alysa over at Inspired RD posted this amazing grain-free recipe that branches out of the usual box with "fried rice” and it’s delicious! It’s a fantastic way to get your veggies while enjoying familiar flavors at the same time. It stores well, so make a batch and scoop out a serving for a healthy light lunch to bring to work or school!

1 Tbsp. virgin coconut oil
3 stems kale, washed, trimmed and chopped
1 bell pepper, diced (or 4-5 mini bell peppers)
2 carrots, diced small
1 cup diced purple cabbage
1 egg
Pinch of salt
1/2 tsp. freshly grated nutmeg
1/4 cup California walnut halves

Place a large pan over medium heat (no higher than medium if you are using coconut oil). Add coconut oil. Add carrots to pan and saute 2-3 minutes. Add cabbage, peppers and kale, and saute for 3-4 more minutes until veggies are bright with color and a little softened.

Crack egg directly into pan, let it cook for 1 minutes, then use a spatula to break the egg up and toss with vegetables. Remove pan from heat, and sprinkle salt and nutmeg over vegetable and egg mixture. Serve in a large bowl topped with walnuts.
