Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

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)
2 green onions, thinly sliced
1 lime, juiced

Steps:

  • 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.
  • 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.
  • Roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes; stir and continue roasting until tender and lightly browned, about 15 minutes more.
  • Top vegetable mixture with pinto beans, cotija cheese, cilantro, pepitas, green onions, and lime juice. Spoon into 4 serving bowls.

These cauliflower rice and beans fajita bowls are a great way to use up leftover rice. I had some cooked brown rice in the fridge, and I used it to make these bowls. They were just as good as the bowls made with cauliflower rice.

I'm not a fan of spicy food, so I used mild fajita seasoning. The bowls were still delicious, and they had just the right amount of heat for me.
