Cauliflower Rice BBQ Chicken Burrito Bowl

 

Cauliflower Rice Burrito BowlLoves! Have you tried cauliflower rice yet? Do you know how to make it? Check out this week’s Luv Cooks YouTube video for ALL the cauliflower rice how-to’s!

Cauliflower rice is currently ALL the rage on the internet, so I decided to give it a go for myself. And you know what? I’m loving it.

In fact, so does my nutritionist friend Suzanne Pirkle. She developed this week’s easy breezy cauliflower rice BBQ chicken burrito bowl and I couldn’t be more stoked about it! It’s creamy but dairy-free, and full of fiber and protein all the good-for-you veggies. PLUS it builds on all of the other things you can make ahead of time, like our 2-ingredient slow cooker BBQ chicken AND easy blender BBQ sauce.

The other thing I LOVE about cauliflower rice is that it carries the flavors of other dishes. It’s a perfect, low-carb and keto-friendly option to highlight not only our delicious BBQ chicken, but you can throw it into so many other dishes as a rice replacement.

Let’s get this burrito bowl gooooingggg!!!
