Sometimes you just need a quick meal. These keto one-pan meals are rich in flavors, nutritious, and low in carbs.
The idea of making dinner at the end of the day can be quite stressful. It’s enough to make you want to just order takeout.
But takeout gets pretty expensive and is not always healthy. Particularly if you’re on a keto diet. One-pan meal ideas will help keep you in ketosis and save you time as well.

Dirty cauliflower rice is the keto version of dirty rice. Dirty rice, if you don’t know, is a Cajun dish. The rice becomes “dirty” from it getting cooked with pieces of meat such as chicken, beef, or pork.
You can use packaged cauliflower rice, or to save money, you can make your own cauliflower rice ahead of time, place it in a freezer bag, and freeze it. This food processor should do the trick.
