Ingredients
-
1 cup riced cauliflower
-
200g (7 oz) lean ground beef (85/15)
-
½ ripe avocado, sliced
-
1 tbsp olive oil (divided)
-
1 garlic clove, minced (or ¼ tsp garlic powder)
-
½ tsp cumin + ½ tsp smoked paprika
-
Salt & pepper to taste
-
Fresh cilantro or parsley, chopped
-
Optional: Lime wedge, Greek yogurt, chili flakes, crushed tortilla chips
Instructions
-
Cauliflower Rice: Sauté in ½ tbsp oil over medium-high heat with a pinch of salt. Let it sit between tosses for caramelization. Cook 5–7 mins until tender-crisp. Stir in half the herbs off heat.
-
Spiced Beef: In the same pan, heat remaining oil. Add garlic (30 secs), then beef. Add cumin, smoked paprika, salt, pepper. Let sit briefly for crispy edges. Cook 5–6 mins.
-
Assemble: Bowl it up—start with rice, pile on beef, fan out avocado slices. Scatter herbs. Optional lime squeeze or Greek yogurt = flavor bomb.
Notes
Don’t overcrowd the pan! Crispy beef = flavor gold. Want extra heat? Add chipotle or jalapeños.
Go ahead—let this bowl crash your Taco Tuesday and upgrade it for good.
