This is sooooo delicious! I went a little heavier on the cumin and it was perfect! Instead of the rice in this recipe I made the Keto Spanish Rice recipe I found on here! Didn't even notice the tortillas were missing!

Do you have to use apple vinegar? Or would regular work?

Is there a way to recalculate the nutrition without the rice?

I think it's referring to riced cauliflower, not actual rice

The best is with chipotle Tabasco sauce. Mmm. 😋 I really like this recipe, but I cut the salt from it completely. It’s WAY too salty for me. I add salt to my plate instead and it’s perfect.

One of my favorite recipes!! My husband and I love spicy food so I added some hot peppers to the sauce. AMAZING!
