I’ve been trying to find carbohydrate replacements and have recently discovered cauliflower rice. I made this for dinner tonight using ground turkey. Didn’t have pablano peppers at the grocery store so I used 2 jalapenos grown in our garden. I did add a little salt and pepper while it was cooking. It was yummy! I ate it from a bowl with a little bit of sour cream. My kids used flour tortillas and made tacos out of it. Thanks for the recipe!!
