Ingredients

2 tablespoons - olive oil
2 cloves - garlic
24 ounces - frozen cauliflower rice
1 tbsp - lime zest
2 tablespoons - fresh lime juice
⅓ cup - fresh cilantro
⅛ - salt
⅛ - pepper

Instructions

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook 30 seconds until golden and fragrant.
Add the frozen cauliflower rice to the pan and break up into chunks with a wooden spoon. You can thaw it out slightly before using to make breaking it up even easier. Cook for about 5 minutes, until the riced cauliflower is cooked but not mushy.
Remove from heat and stir in the lime zest, lime juice and chopped cilantro. Taste and season with the desired amount of salt and pepper. Serve warm and enjoy!
