Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Cauliflower rice
- 1 cup Black soybeans (canned)
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 medium Onion, diced
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, diced
- 1 teaspoon Cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 Lime, juiced
Instructions
Begin by draining and rinsing the canned black soybeans under cold water. Set them aside in a colander to drain completely.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and diced red bell pepper. Continue to sauté for another 2-3 minutes, until the bell pepper begins to soften.
Add the cauliflower rice to the skillet. Stir well to combine with the sautéed vegetables.
Sprinkle in the cumin, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly to evenly distribute the spices.
Add the drained black soybeans to the skillet and stir everything together. Cook for another 4-5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the cauliflower rice to tenderize.
Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the freshly chopped cilantro and the juice of one lime.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or lime juice to your preference.
Serve the Keto Casamiento warm, garnished with extra cilantro if desired.
