Keto Burrito Bowl Recipe (High-Protein, Low-Carb)
May 08, 2019Chipotle’s got nothing on this homemade, keto-fied burrito bowl. It’s so simple to throw together and the cauliflower rice is the perfect substitute for traditional rice. Seriously, you can’t even tell the difference! Add a side of Keto Refried “Beans” (page 224 of my book) to jazz it up even more.

Ingredients
For the meat
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 tablespoon Mexican Spice Blend (page 237 my book)
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
For the cauliflower rice
- 1 tablespoon butter or ghee
- ¼ cup chopped onion
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 4 cups fresh or frozen cauliflower rice
- ½ tablespoon Mexican Spice Blend (page 237 my book)
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Optional toppings
- Shredded cheese
- Low-sugar salsa
- Sour cream
- Avocado slices
- Hot sauce
- Jalapeños
Instructions
-
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the beef with the Mexican spice blend, salt, and pepper, stirring frequently, until browned, 5 to 7 minutes.
-
In another large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the onion and garlic and cook for 3 minutes. Add the cauliflower rice, spice blend, salt, and pepper and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, until the cauliflower is cooked through, stirring occasionally.
-
To assemble, divide the cauliflower and ground beef evenly among 4 bowls. Top each bowl with the toppings of your choice.
Notes
Ingredient Tip: Cauliflower rice is extremely versatile in any dish and that’s why I keep several bags in the freezer at all times. I used to make it from scratch, but these days you can find it in the frozen section of any grocery store. It’s very convenient and a huge time saver.
