Notes: Taco Seasoning– I wanted to make sure all parts of this recipe was on one page so you didn’t have to navigate away to another recipe about the homemade taco seasoning. Please note that the taco seasoning in the recipe card above is for about 7 TB of seasoning. You only need about 2 TB of seasoning per pound of ground beef. Cauliflower Rice– To keep all parts of this recipe on one page, I have included the cauliflower rice recipe. I used about 1 cup for one serving when preparing my taco bowl, but feel free to divide your cauliflower rice in 4 equal parts if you choose. I have included the cauliflower rice with 1 whole medium head of cauliflower in the nutrition estimation. It just varies how many cups this will produce so I did my best to estimate and give my recommendation. Toppings– These are just my recommendations for toppings, but feel free to use whatever toppings you would like to add to this taco bowl. In fact, get creative and tell me about it in the comments! I did not include the toppings in the nutrition information so please do your own calculations to ensure accuracy. Nutrition and carbs– Be aware that some recipe blogs omit sugar alcohols or allulose from the nutrition calculation since it does not affect blood sugar. For transparency, I have included it and calculated the net carbs below. Always use a carb counter app like Cronometeraccording to the brands you use in order to get accurate nutrition information, especially for this recipe because there will be several topping and base variations. The nutrition estimation is for the bowl base only, so please calculate your added toppings for accuracy!
