Asian Pineapple Cauliflower Rice

   I usually like to have brown rice when I have rice but, I recently discovered a new way to have rice...Cauliflower rice! It's so easy to and takes far less time to cook then brown rice! Did you know that cauliflower has more Vitamin C then an orange? Yep! In fact this entire cauliflower rice dish is filled with Vitamin C from the cauliflower, red pepper, peas, and pineapple. I love sweet and savory dishes! This dish is just that with a sweet asian pineapple sauce and all this veggie goodness!
