I'm on a low-carb diet but I really wanted to try this Cocido recipe. I made a few adjustments and it turned out great! I substituted cauliflower rice for the potatoes and used a low-carb chorizo. It still had all the delicious flavor of the original

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cocido turned out really watery. The broth was not thick and flavorful like I expected. I'm going to try making it again and see if I can get it right.

This cocido recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I had to add some extra salt and pepper to make it more flavorful. Other than that, it was pretty good.
