Skinny One Skillet Mexican Cauliflower Bowls (+ the BEST ground turkey taco meat ever)

March 28, 2018

/ dinneruncategorized

I’ve said it once, I’ll say it a million times. Mexican food is life. If you don’t agree this blog may not be for you.. just kidding 😜.  I think my ultimate goal in life is to find all the skinny-ish, healthy-ish Mexican food hacks so we can keep on eatin’ y’all!

Today I’ve cracked another one. One of my favorite dishes when I go to a place like Chipotle is a burrito bowl. (Dos Bros is my favorite Chipotle-Like place in Chattanooga. If you haven’t tried it yet, it’s SO good.) I love ordering a burrito bowl- rice, beans, meat and all the delicious Mexican toppings. To create an at home, healthier version I use cauliflower rice and ground turkey.

Watch out y’all, this one skillet masterpiece is about to have you hooked!

I N G R E D I E N T S
For the Meat:
1 Pack of Ground Turkey
3 Tablespoons Tomato Paste
1 1/2 Teaspoons Cumin
4 Teaspoons Chili Powder
1 Tablespoon Minced Garlic
2 Teaspoons Paprika
2 1/2 Teaspoon Onion Powder
Salt & Pepper
1/2 Cup or Water

For the Skillet:
1 Bag of Cauliflower Rice (Frozen, Ok)
1/4 Cup of Cheese
Diced Red Pepper
1 Can of Rotel Tomatoes (Drained)
Tomatillo Salsa
Optional:
Black Beans (Drained)
Corn (Drained)
Onions
Avocado
Cilantro

D I R E C T I O N S 
1. In a large skillet, brown ground turkey
2. Once browned, reduce to low and in one spot** add everything but the water, do not stir
3. Slowly add in the water, stirring to combine everything
4. Simmer for 10-15 minutes
5. Remove ground turkey from skillet and add cauliflower rice
6. Once cauliflower rice is almost cooked, add in ground turkey, beans, rotel tomatoes, corn, whatever you choose except salsa, cheese or avocado
7. Cook on low for 5-7 more minutes until rice is slightly browned. Add in cheese.
8. Let cheese melt, top with salsa, avocado and cilantro. Serve and Enjoy!

There’s so many possibilities for this skillet! You could easily do chicken or steak and this is super easy to make paleo, keto, whole30 approved etc.! I love taking the leftovers with some lettuce for a fun taco salad lunch.

If you try this, be sure to let me know on IG (@YesPleaseDaily) or Pinterest! Thanks for popping in, I hope you enjoy! XO

Excuse me while I move into @zennailspachatt 🤩🤩 I wanted a fun manicure but my nails were looking ROUGH. We decided on a nice clean up with two accent nails while they grow a little bit and strengthen up. 👏🏻 I LOVE IT. the smileys are so happy and bring me joy each time I look at my nails. I’ve had quite the nail saga in Chatt (#iykyk 😏) so finding a spot that is worth the money and enjoyable + great results, makes me SO happy. If you haven’t tried Zen yet, I highly recommend checking them out. #ChattanoogaFun #Noogagram #NailsOfInsta ps. Sweater is major free people vibes but under $20! I’ll link in my stories.

It’s going tooooo fast 😭 somehow we have a se It’s going tooooo fast 😭 somehow we have a seven month old baby and it doesn’t even seem possible. ⁣

Soaking up everyday is easy with this sweet boy. He’s pretty much all smiles as long as the attention is all on him. He really loves eating, babies and Doodle. He’s scooting and already trying to get into everything. Lucky for us, so far he pretty much just goes in circles. His first tooth popped through and he has a little bit of very blonde hair. ⁣

Excited to see what Fosty’s first spring brings. 🌼 #7MonthsOld #FosterSitton
