Fiesta Cauliflower

Mexican flavors are some of my favorites, and luckily they tend to be keto-friendly. In this lovely side, cilantro, lime juice, and jalapeños give regular old cauliflower rice a nice kick. I like to sprinkle a little Tajin chili-lime seasoning on top to give it some extra zing as well.
