Admittedly, I don't love cauliflower rice. But you know what I DO love? Pineapple! And Dole pineapple and cauliflower rice make an amazing pair in this savory dish. I've finally found a way to love cauliflower rice like never before!

I know cauliflower rice, ground chicken and pineapple sound like a strange combination. But let me tell you, this combination works! I've been meal prepping it on and off for weeks then shared it with the ladies in my membership program. They loved it! They (and their families) are the ultimate test of my creations.

Pineapple Chicken Cauliflower Fried Rice

This pineapple chicken cauliflower fried rice is filled with remarkable flavor. I wish I could share it with you through the screen. A little sweet from the juicy, pineapple tidbits...a little savory from the veggies and chicken.

An incredibly filling meal from the veggies, protein and fruit. You wouldn't know this dish had cauliflower rice instead of regular rice. It doesn't taste like cauliflower and the cauliflower blends in so well with the ground chicken, you can't spot it.

Helpful Tips

My biggest tip is to buy cauliflower rice already riced. It's a huge time savor and makes cooking this meal a breeze in under 30 minutes. Hey, you gotta take shortcuts where you can! I'm convinced shortcuts make healthy eating more manageable which helps YOU stay consistent.

Don't forget to save the pineapple juice when you drain the chunks from the can. It's perfect for washing down this delicious meal!

    Thanks for this chicken recipe. I love it.
    I will see if I have enough ingredients to make it myself. Thus, I don't think I can prepare in 10 minutes!
