Mexican Casserole With Cauliflower Rice

1. 1

   Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.

2. 2

   Start by browning the meat. In a large saute pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add ground beef with a generous amount of spices, salt and pepper. Saute for 6-7 minutes, until brown. Remove to a plate with a slotted spoon.

3. 3

   Reduce heat to medium low. Add more olive oil if necessary. Now add onions, garlic and green chilies, salt and pepper. Saute for 5 minutes. Add riced cauliflower, a generous amount of spices, and salt. Let cook together for 3-4 minutes.

4. 4

   Now add the black beans and can of tomatoes, and some more spices, salt and pepper. Stir everything to combine. Let saute for 5 more minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning as necessary.

5. 5

   Transfer cauliflower and bean mixture to a baking dish, and spread evenly. Cover cauliflower mixture with ground beef, and again, spread evenly. Now top with the 2-3 cups of shredded cheese, just making sure everything is covered.

6. 6

   Cover baking dish with foil, and pop into oven for 15 minutes. Remove foil and bake for another 7 minutes.

7. 7

   Serve with lots of shredded lettuce, salsa, pickled jalapenos and your favorite salsa. So great for a relatively easy weeknight meal (and pretty low on carbs!)
