Instructions
-
Before cooking the bowls, pickle the vegetables. Toss veggies in a large bowl and add vinegar, water, and salt. Let sit for at least 1 hour. Drain the vinegar and water.
-
Heat a large skillet to medium high heat. Once hot, add in 1 tbsp oil, toss in the cauliflower rice and cook until warmed and softened, about 5 minutes. Divide into 4 bowls.
-
Keep the skillet hot, add in a bit more oil if needed. Toss in the garlic and ginger, let sauté for 2 minutes. Then stir in ground beef. Cook until browned and break up the ground beef using a wooden spoon. Stir in the coconut aminos, fish sauce, and chili garlic sauce. Remove from heat.
-
Meanwhile, make the sauce. Stir together mayo, sriracha, and lime juice.
-
Spoon the meat mixture over each of the bowls. Top with pickled veggies and sauce. Garnish with cilantro, sesame seeds, and pickled jalapeños (if using!).
