• 1 tablespoon taco seasoning
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 2 cups (200g) riced cauliflower
• 1/4 cup (15g) cilantro, packed, roughly chopped, plus more for garnish

Directions
In a large saute pan set over medium heat, add ground beef and sauté for 7 minutes until browned, season with taco seasoning and salt and pepper halfway through. Transfer into an 8-by-8-inch dish.
Add cauliflower rice to pan and cook for 4–5 minutes until softened. Stir in cilantro and lime juice and distribute the mixture atop the beef, spreading evenly.
