Cauliflower Rice Black Bean Burrito Bowls Recipes

CAULIFLOWER RICE BLACK BEAN BURRITO BOWLS

Steps:

• Make the pico de gallo. In a medium bowl, stir together all of the pico de gallo ingredients. Taste and add additional salt and pepper if desired. Set aside.
• Saute the cauliflower rice. Set a large saute pan over medium heat. When hot, add the olive oil. Add the grated cauliflower along with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until tender, about 3 minutes. I like to give it an extra minute or two until it gets a bit toasty and golden. Set aside.
• Cook the beans. In a medium saute pan over medium heat, add the oil. Add the garlic cloves and let cook on each side for about 30 seconds. Mash with a fork. Add the drained beans, cumin, and salt and pepper and cook, stirring, until the beans are warmed through. Mash a few with the fork if you like, and if they start to look a little dry, stir in a bit of water if you'd like.
• Assemble the burrito bowls. Set out two bowls and divide the cauliflower rice between the two. Layer in the beans and top with a generous scoop of pico de gallo. Top with avocado, a lime wedge for squeezing over the top if desired, and a few leaves of cilantro.
• Serve at once.

ROASTED CAULIFLOWER BURRITO BOWLS

Steps:

• Rice: Cook the rice according to package directions.
• Heat the oven to 425 degrees. Toss the cauliflower florets with the olive oil and half of the taco seasoning. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast for 20-25 minutes, tossing halfway through to prevent burning.
• Combine the black beans, water, and remaining taco seasoning in a small saucepan. Bring to a low simmer. Mash the black beans with the back of a spoon until the mixture starts to get creamy. It should continue to thicken as it stays over medium low heat.
• Toss the tomatoes, onion, limes, and cilantro together to make a pico de gallo. Season with salt.
• Build a big bowl with rice, refried beans, corn, pico de gallo, avocado, and a lime wedge. Top the bowl with your roasted cauliflower and add your hot sauce if you want!
