Big Green Egg Shrimp Skewers are great over Cauliflower "Rice"
Getting back from a week away on vacation is hard enough... but trying to fit back in to your work clothes after all that good eating and drinking is the worst! For my first cook after family vacation I wanted to cook something healthy but full of flavor. Recently, my better half (AKA Mrs. Buddha), introduced Cauliflower "Fried Rice" to our dinner rotation. This twist on classic fried rice substitutes the rice for cauliflower that has been pulsed in a food processor. Cauliflower "fried rice" is really delicious and a terrific way to cut the carbs from your diet. For this cook I wanted to do a shrimp dish paired with the Cauliflower "fried rice". After settling in I took inventory of the ingredients I had on hand and went to the store to pick up a few additional things for this meal. So, sit back, grab yourself a glass of Riesling, and enjoy this post for Korean Shrimp Skewers
