Keto Spanish Cauliflower Rice
Spanish cauliflower rice is full of smoky flavor, is a little spicy, and is a tad crunchy too. This recipe has the perfect amount of sauteed onion, carrot, and jalapeno to enhance the flavors of the spiced cauliflower rice. A generous sprinkle of fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice makes the side dish vibrant and pretty to look at too!

This gave me an idea for my own spicy rice! No carrot or jalapeno; used yellow bell pepper and zucchini and added added a tablespoon of srachira instead of the spices. Viola!

This was so good! I don't think I can ever go back to plain cauliflower rice.

Is there a way to calculate the macros if I want to take the carrots out? Thanks

The carrots only account for 2g carbs in the whole recipe. Hope this helps!

Vegs burned, very spicy, so use a small pepper (mine was at least 2 inches) and scrape out the seeds
