Loaded Breakfast Taco Bowls
Cauli-Rice:
1 tbsp butter or avocado oil
12 oz cauliflower rice
1 jalapeno pepper minced
Himalayan sea salt and pepper
Juice of one lime
Meat:
1 tbsp butter or avocado oil
1 lb ground beef
Himalayan sea salt to taste
2 tsp taco seasoning, no sugar added
1 tsp onion powder
1-2 tbsp water or broth
Eggs:
1 tbsp butter or avocado oil
6 large eggs whisked with 2 tsp water
Himalayan sea salt and pepper to taste
Additional Toppings:
1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
Fresh salsa (pico de gallo or preferred salsa)
1 avocado sliced
Lime juice to taste
Minced cilantro for garnish
Cauliflower Rice:
1. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the butter or oil. Add the riced cauliflower and stir to coat. Cover skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes to steam.
2. Uncover and stir, then add the jalapeño pepper, salt and pepper, and lime juice. Cook and stir another minute or two uncovered until you have desired texture, then remove from heat.
Meat:
1. Meanwhile in a separate skillet (or the same one after cooking the cauli-rice) heat 1 tbsp butter or oil over medium high heat.
2. Crumble the beef into the skillet and break up lumps with a wooden spoon or spatula. Add the salt and all seasonings and cook, stirring occasionally until browned. Do not drain the fat. Lower heat to medium-low and add the water or broth, stir to combine and cook just long enough to heat through, then remove from heat.
Eggs:
1. Heat a separate skillet over medium heat and whisk the eggs well with the water, and salt and pepper. Add the butter or oil to the skillet and wait for it to heat, then pour the egg mixture in. Cook over medium heat, stirring to scramble, until halfway done, then lower the heat to low or med-low. Finish scrambling the eggs over the lower heat setting until cooked to preference.
Assemble the bowls:
1. Layer the cauliflower rice with the beef, eggs, cherry tomatoes, pico de Gallo, and avocado before serving. If making ahead of time, skip the tomatoes, pico de Gallo and avocado until just before serving. This recipe should make 4-6 breakfast bowls depending on your appetite. Garnish with cilantro and extra lime juice if desired. Enjoy!
