  • Total Time: 25
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 ripe avocados, sliced
4 cups cauliflower rice (prepared and seasoned)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 lime, juiced and sliced for garnish
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
2 tablespoons thinly sliced red onion
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, quartered (optional)

Instructions

Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Toss shrimp with olive oil, garlic, cumin, salt, and pepper.
Grill shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side until pink and opaque. Set aside.
In a bowl, combine cauliflower rice with 1/2 the lime juice and 1/2 the cilantro. Fluff with a fork.
Assemble bowls by layering cauliflower rice, grilled shrimp, avocado slices, red onion, tomato (if using), and remaining cilantro.

Notes

Use pre-riced cauliflower for speed. Add diced bell peppers for extra crunch. Shrimp can be cooked 24 hours ahead. Store leftovers separately to prevent sogginess.
Substitute 1/2 cup shredded carrots for added sweetness.
