Chicken & Spanish Cauliflower

I learned about the paleo diet from some friends who now have tons of energy and are super fit. Since then, I've changed my eating habits, too. Everyone from my dad to my little nephew loves this chicken in Spanish cauliflower rice. -Megan Schmoldt, Westminster, Colorado

I'm not usually a fan of chicken, but this dish was amazing! The chicken was tender and flavorful, and the cauliflower rice was a great healthy alternative to regular rice.

This dish was okay, but I wasn't blown away. The chicken was a bit bland and the cauliflower rice was a bit mushy.
