Description

A delicious and wholesome burrito bowl featuring spiced ground chicken, fresh vegetables, and creamy avocado, all served on a base of fluffy cauliflower rice.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground chicken
  • 2 cups cauliflower rice
  • 1 tablespoon taco seasoning
  • 1 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1 cup black beans (drained and rinsed)
  • 1 avocado (sliced)
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese
  • 1/4 cup cilantro (chopped)
  • Lime wedges

Instructions

  1. Cook the chicken: In a skillet over medium heat, brown the ground chicken until delightfully golden, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Season it up: Stir in the taco seasoning, mixing well, allowing the spices to coat the chicken thoroughly.
  3. Prepare the cauliflower rice: In another skillet, gently heat cauliflower rice until tender, stirring occasionally for about 4-5 minutes.
  4. Assemble your bowl: Start with a layer of cauliflower rice, top it with seasoned chicken, diced tomatoes, black beans, and avocado.
  5. Finalize with cheesy goodness: Sprinkle the shredded cheese and chopped cilantro over the top.
  6. Serve with lime: Place lime wedges on the side for a zesty squeeze just before indulging.

Notes

This burrito bowl keeps well in the fridge for up to three days. Consider using an air fryer for the chicken for added crispiness.
