Notes
When making cauliflower rice, it’s best to pulse in small bursts so the cauliflower doesn't get over-processed and too small. You want it to maintain some texture.Check the flavor of your refried beans, especially if you are using a canned product. They may need some additional spices such as taco seasoning or fajita seasoning added for a little bit of flavor. If you plan to reheat your burrito bowl to eat later, pack up all the fresh ingredients separately and then add them on after you reheat the cauliflower rice and beans.
