Keto Burrito Bowl w/ Cauliflower Cilantro Lime Rice | Better Than Chipotle!

I created this recipe as part of my 10-Day Keto Challenge! Check out some of the other recipes I made during the challenge here! Being on a keto diet has been challenging, but not impossible. There are many things that are hard to do on a low carb diet, but I’ve come up with some tricks to help. Today, I’m sharing one of my keto burrito bowls. It was inspired by a Chipotle meal, but it’s better than that!

If you’re looking for a new low carb keto friendly option (that also happens to be tasty) then you’ve come to the right place. In this recipe I’ve combined a burrito bowl with a cauliflower rice. Topped with a generous amount of fresh cilantro lime rice, this dish is high in fat, low in net carbs, and provides a healthy dose of fiber. It’s quick and easy to make, which means that you can prepare it in the morning and have dinner ready by the time you get home.

The Keto diet is all the buzz lately, and it seems as if everyone is talking about it. The ketogenic diet has been trending for years, however, it is a diet that has only recently become popularized. A ketogenic diet is a low carb, high fat diet where foods are primarily made up of fat, protein and low starches.

Do you like burrito bowls from places like Chipotle?

If you’re wanting a rice-based burrito bowl from a Mexican restaurant but trying to cut carbs, consider creating your own grain-free burrito bowl at home using cauliflower rice! As a consequence, you’ll have a flavorful, keto-friendly dinner that’s both tasty and filling.

Pick a protein that your family will like and tailor it to their preferences. If preferred, you may use shredded beef, pig, diced steak, or chicken for the taco seasoned ground beef.

The cauliflower cilantro rice is the highlight of this dish!

Try this wonderful variation of cauliflower rice if you’ve never had it before. It has a strong, powerful taste to it.

I’m using 1/2 a packet of Goya Sazon, a popular Hispanic spice that can be found in soups, rice, and even roasted chicken. It uses ground coriander and achiote to create an excellent taste and rich color. Goya goods may be found with other Hispanic cuisine at most supermarket shops.

If you’re searching for a Goya substitute, consider Badia Sazon.
