Hawaiian-Inspired 15-Minute Rainbow Stir-Fry

August 31, 2020

NAKANO Seasoned Rice Vinegar

This recipe is sponsored by NAKANO Rice Vinegars.

Nothing screams summer more than fresh and flavorful meals served out of a pineapple. Who agrees?

Since moving to Charleston, I have become a little pineapple-obsessed. If you know Charleston, you know that the pineapple is a symbol of the city’s hospitality. In fact, there is even a pineapple fountain in downtown Charleston that you’ll find on many of our postcards. But my first love for pineapple stems from my summers spent in Hawaii while living on the West Coast. Nothing reminds me of sweet summertime more than fresh pineapple. At one point, Hawaii was responsible for 80% of the world’s pineapple!

Beyond its symbolism, this fun summer fruit adds amazingly sweet flavor to recipes and not to mention, a load of nutritional benefits. This tropical fruit is an excellent source of vitamin C, which is important for immune and skin health as well as fiber, important for heart and digestive health.

This 15-minute stir-fry could not be easier to make and is the perfect fresh and light summer meal. In this recipe, I’ve used riced cauliflower, which is one of my favorite lightened-up swaps for dishes that call for traditional rice. Cauliflower is mild in taste, so it soaks up the flavors you cook it with. Not to mention it’s much lower in calories and carbohydrates than traditional rice but loaded with vitamins, minerals, fiber and antioxidants.
