Ingredients
Scale
- 2 medium heads cauliflower, cored and riced (see tips in the note section)
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- ¾ teaspoon smoked paprika

- Heat coconut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic, until the onion begins to turn translucent and is fragrant. Add the cauliflower and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes, until cauliflower is tender. (Be sure to not overcook, or cauliflower will become mushy) Add paprika and cumin. Sauté for an additional minute.
