Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef (90% lean or higher)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.25 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cauliflower (medium head, riced)
- 1.5 tablespoon lime juice
- 0.5 cup fresh cilantro (chopped)
- 1 avocado (medium, sliced)
Instructions
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 pound lean ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper into the beef. Cook for 1 minute more, stirring well.
- Push the beef to one side of the skillet. Add the 1 medium head riced cauliflower to the other side. Cook the cauliflower for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender-crisp. Mix the beef and cauliflower together.
- Remove from heat and stir in 1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lime juice and 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro.
- Divide the mixture among three bowls. Top each serving with slices of 1 medium avocado and any additional fresh cilantro if desired.
Notes
For extra crunch, consider adding a sprinkle of pumpkin seeds before serving. To save time, you can use pre-riced cauliflower.
