Ingredients
  • 1 pound ground chorizo sausage
  • 1 onion diced
  • 1 jalapeno seeds removed and diced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 12 oz bag frozen cauliflower rice
  • 1 cup canned corn drained
  • 1 10 oz can Rotel tomatoes drained
  • 1/2 cup cilantro chopped
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions
  1. In a large skillet over medium heat add the ground chorizo sausage. Cook 5-8 minutes, breaking it apart as it cooks. Remove from the skillet onto a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess fat. Leave just a small amount of fat in the skillet.

  2. In the same skillet, still over medium heat add the diced onion and jalapeno. Cook 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  3. Add the garlic and frozen cauliflower rice. Season with kosher salt and pepper. Cook 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  4. Add corn, Rotel, and cilantro and cook 5 more minutes, stirring occasionally.

  5. Add shredded cheese and stir until melted. Taste for seasoning and add more kosher salt and pepper if needed.

  6. Serve with sour cream, hot sauce, and lime wedges if desired.
