Ingredients

2 tbsp Olive Oil
12 oz Cauliflower Rice fresh or frozen riced cauliflower works. I use frozen
1 cup Salsa I prefer Cantina Style or Pico De Gallo, which can be picked up in the deli or refrigerated section at most grocers.
2 tbsp Tomato Paste
1/2 tbsp Homemade Taco Seasoning click for recipe
1/2 tsp Natural Ancient Sea Salt
1/4 tsp Black Pepper
1/2 tsp Ground Cumin

Instructions

Heat a large skillet (10-12 in. so that there's room to mix the rice) to medium-high. Add the olive oil and cauliflower rice.
Cook the rice for about 3-4 minutes. This step allows fresh cauliflower rice to get more tender and frozen cauliflower rice to thaw.
Add the spices, tomato paste, and salsa. Continue to cook until all the liquid from the salsa is cleared and the cauliflower rice is tender. For me, this step takes another 8-10 minutes.
