1. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the cauliflower rice, almond flour, egg, and coconut aminos.
2. Add the chopped green onions, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt to the mixture. Stir until all the ingredients are well incorporated.
3. Take about a tablespoon of the mixture and form it into small balls or patties, flattening slightly. Repeat until all the mixture is used.
4. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the coconut oil.
5. Once the oil is melted and hot, carefully place the cauliflower bites in the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
6. Remove the bites from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
7. Serve the Paleo Crispy Rice Bites warm with your choice of paleo-friendly dipping sauce or enjoy them on their own.
