Begin by preparing the cauliflower rice. Cut the cauliflower into florets and pulse in a food processor until the texture resembles rice.
In a large skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the cauliflower rice, season with a pinch of salt, and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until tender. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil. Mince the garlic cloves and chop the ginger, then add them to the skillet. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Add ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up with a wooden spoon. Cook until browned, about 8-10 minutes.
Peel and shred the carrot, and chop the green onions. Add them to the beef, mixing well.
Pour in the coconut aminos and season with 1 teaspoon of salt and 0.5 teaspoon of black pepper. Stir to combine and allow the mixture to cook for another 3-4 minutes.
Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly. Mix in the cauliflower rice until well incorporated.
Prep the napa cabbage leaves by blanching them in boiling water for 1 minute, until pliable. Remove and pat dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Lay out the cabbage leaves on a flat surface. Spoon a generous portion of the beef mixture onto one end of each leaf and roll tightly, tucking in the sides as you go.
Serve the beef rice rolls warm and enjoy your Whole30 compliant meal.
