This cheesy ground beef cauliflower rice skillet comes together in less than 30 minutes! It’s amazingly flavorful and satisfying, and you can make it on even your busiest of days. I hope you’ll love this dish as much as my family does!

Let’s talk about the main ingredients in this dish!

We start this dish by cooking ground beef with diced onions. I used 93% lean ground beef, but you can use 85 or 80% lean if you’d prefer. You’ll just want to make sure you drain the grease well after cooking the beef. Some other great meat options include substituting with ground pork or ground turkey. To our cooked meat and onions, we add diced tomatoes. You can use regular or petite diced tomatoes for this dish. Whichever you choose, you’ll want to add the tomatoes and all the juice. For seasoning, we start by adding tamari. Tamari is gluten free soy sauce. If you want to avoid soy, you can substitute with coconut aminos. For seasoning, we add garlic powder, salt, pepper, and smoked paprika. You can use regular paprika in place of the smoked if you’d prefer.

What other ingredients go into this cheesy ground beef cauliflower skillet dish?

We add just two additional ingredients to this dish, which helps to make it amazingly cheesy and amazingly filling. First, we add riced cauliflower. You can buy a head of cabbage and use a box grater or a food processor to rice it. You can also use frozen riced cauliflower, which is what I prefer to use. I find frozen riced cauliflower to be softer and I prefer its texture. I microwaved my frozen cauliflower for a few minutes, until it was tender before adding it to the skillet. If you use fresh riced cauliflower, you can either steam it or saute it in a skillet with a little avocado or olive oil until it’s softened. For cheese, I used shredded colby jack cheese. Alternately, you can use any good melting cheese. I do recommend buying a block of cheese and shredding it yourself as it melts the absolute best!

How can I serve this cheesy ground beef cauliflower skillet dish?

You have some awesome low carb options for serving this dish. I like to serve this dish topped with some fresh chopped green onions. You can also top yours with some fresh chopped chives or parsley. This is a great dish to serve for lunch or for dinner. You can start your meal with a green salad, using your favorite lettuce, salad toppings, and keto salad dressing. If you’d like, you can also start your meal with a keto soup. Another great choice is to serve keto biscuits, chaffles, cornbread, or English muffins as a side to this skillet meal. Any cooked low carb vegetable can also be served as a side to this dish. Some good options include asparagus, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage dishes, green beans, and spinach. We also love boiled radishes and roasted radishes.
