OMG this Sweet and Sour Cauliflower Stir Fry is so good! I am a big fan of sweet and sour sauce. Sadly, most store bought brands are loaded with sugar and other additives. So I had to make my own and boy did it come out good! Actually, I can’t take total credit for this one. I came up with the idea for a sweet and sour cauliflower stir fry, but my husband Marcus created the dish. Some other creations of his are my Peanut Noodle Stir Fry and my Sweet Potato Chili. He is so much better at the savory recipes. I served this over brown rice, but it would be equally as good over quinoa.
This Sweet and Sour Cauliflower stir fry is vegan and gluten free. You could probably serve it over cauliflower rice for a grain free option. I kept the veggies and the rice in separate containers in the fridge so I could add the amount of rice I wanted. I ate 2 servings of the veggies and only a small portion of the rice. I can see the sauce working in a lot of other recipes too!
