Serve bowls topped with pico de gallo, guacamole, and sour cream. If you like, you can also add two grilled thinly sliced chicken breasts or 2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds riced cauliflower
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced, or more to taste
- 1 small red onion, halved and sliced
- ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, grated
- 1 ½ tablespoons fajita seasoning
- 2 teaspoons ground cumin
- 1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 (15.5 ounce) can pinto beans, rinsed and drained
- 4 ounces crumbled cotija cheese
- ½ cup chopped fresh cilantro
- ½ cup pepitas (pumpkin seeds) (Optional)
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced
- 1 lime, juiced
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Cover a baking sheet with aluminum foil, ensuring the foil goes up the sides of the sheet to catch all the juices.
Step 2
Combine cauliflower, red bell pepper, red onion, olive oil, garlic, fajitas seasoning, cumin, and salt in a large bowl; stir until coated. Spread vegetable mixture onto the prepared baking sheet.
Step 3
Roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes; stir and continue roasting until tender and lightly browned, about 15 minutes more.
Step 4
Top vegetable mixture with pinto beans, cotija cheese, cilantro, pepitas, green onions, and lime juice. Spoon into 4 serving bowls.
Cook’s Note:
A large head of cauliflower can also be used in place of the prepared riced cauliflower. Remove the core from the cauliflower and cut it into large florets. In 2 to 3 batches, using a food processor, pulse the cauliflower until finely chopped. About 8 to 10 long pulses per batch works perfectly.
