Cauliflower Rice
- 1 Tbsp ghee (or avocado oil)
- 12 oz cauliflower rice
- 1 jalapeno pepper (minced)
- Sea salt and pepper, to taste
- Juice of one lime
Ground Beef Mixture
- 1 Tbsp ghee (or avocado oil)
- 1 lb ground beef
- Sea salt, to taste
- 2 tsp taco seasoning (such as Primal Palate)
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1–2 Tbsp water or broth
Scrambled Eggs
- 1 Tbsp ghee or avocado oil
- 6 large eggs (whisked with 2 tsp water or dairy-free milk)
- Sea salt and pepper, to taste
Toppings
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes (halved)
- Fresh salsa (pico de gallo or preferred salsa), to taste
- 1 avocado (sliced)
- Lime juice, to taste
- Minced cilantro, for garnish
- Prepare the Cauliflower Rice: Heat 1 tablespoon of ghee or avocado oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced jalapeno and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Add the cauliflower rice, season with sea salt and pepper, and sauté for 5-7 minutes until tender. Stir in the juice of one lime and set aside.
- Cook the Ground Beef: In the same or a separate skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of ghee or avocado oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef, breaking it apart with a spoon. Season with sea salt, taco seasoning, and onion powder. Add 1-2 tablespoons of water or broth to keep it moist and cook until browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Make the Scrambled Eggs: Whisk together the eggs with 2 teaspoons of water or dairy-free milk, and season with sea salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of ghee or avocado oil in a clean skillet over medium-low heat. Pour in the eggs and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until soft and fluffy, about 4-5 minutes.
- Assemble the Taco Bowls: Divide the cauliflower rice among bowls. Top with the cooked ground beef and scrambled eggs. Add halved cherry tomatoes, fresh salsa, and sliced avocado on top. Drizzle with additional lime juice if desired and garnish with minced cilantro.
- Serve and Enjoy: Serve the breakfast taco bowls warm. This dish is perfect for a nutritious, flavorful start to the day.
