Ingredients
- 1 tbsp coconut oil

Instructions
-
Heat the Oil
Warm the coconut oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. -
Add Base Ingredients
Add the konjac rice noodles (or cauliflower rice) and cook for 4–5 minutes, stirring occasionally. -
Stir-Fry the Veggies
Add peas, carrots, onions, and garlic. Continue cooking for another 4–5 minutes until the vegetables are tender. -
Cook the Eggs
Push the veggies to one side of the pan. Pour the whisked eggs into the empty side. Scramble them lightly, then mix them into the rice and veggies. -
Season & Toss
Add the coconut aminos, sriracha, and sesame oil. Toss everything thoroughly until well coated and heated through. -
Finish & Serve
Remove from heat and garnish with chopped green onions. Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful, low-carb fried rice!
Notes & Variations
-
What Are Konjac Rice Noodles?
Konjac rice noodles — sometimes labeled “miracle noodles” or “zero noodles” — are made from the konjac plant root and are naturally low in calories and carbs. They must be drained and rinsed well to remove a mild natural aroma before cooking. -
Cauliflower Rice Swap
If you prefer cauliflower rice, you can substitute it 1:1. Using cauliflower rice adds about 15 extra calories and 2 net carbs per serving. -
Make It Vegan
To make this dish vegan, simply omit the eggs or use scrambled tofu as a protein substitute. -
Spice Level Tip
The sriracha adds a nice kick. Reduce it to 1 tsp for mild heat, or eliminate it entirely for no spice. -
Storage & Reheating
Leftovers keep well in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in a skillet for 4–5 minutes or microwave for ~2 minutes until hot.
