Add garlic and onion to the skillet, and cook, stirring often, until onions have become translucent, about 2-3 minutes.Stir in carrots and peas. Cook, stirring constantly, until vegetables are tender, about 3-4 minutes.

Stir in cauliflower rice and soy sauce. Cook, stirring constantly, until heated through, about 2 minutes.

Divide rice mixture into Tupperware or individual containers of choice. Top each with 4 oz shrimp. Store in the fridge for up to 5 days, or freezer for up to 3 months.
