Equipment
- Skillet

- Baking Sheet
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds Grass-Fed Ground Beef
- 1 medium onion diced
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 large head cauliflower cut into florets and steamed
- 6 tablespoons Taco Seasoning Mix
- 2 cups sharp cheddar cheese or Mexican blend shredded
Instructions
- Lightly spray a 9 x 11 inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
- Steam cauliflower florets for about 5 minutes or until desired tenderness. Make sure that the cauliflower isn’t too wet from the steam. Blot with paper towels if necessary and add to the prepared casserole dish.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add diced onion and sauté for 5 minutes. Add the ground beef and break up with a spoon until cooked (3-5 minutes). Drain most oil (if your meat is oily, leaving about 1 tablespoon). Sprinkle Taco Seasoning Mix over the beef mix until coated.
- Add beef to casserole dish and fold together with the cauliflower. Top with cheese and cover with foil.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until cheese is melted. Enjoy!
