Ingredients

• 8 leaves Romaine lettuce leaves (large, sturdy leaves for wrapping)
• 2 cups Cauliflower rice
• 1 medium (diced) Red bell pepper
• 1 medium (diced) Zucchini
• 0.5 medium (diced) Red onion
• 1 large (sliced) Avocado
• 1 cup (halved) Cherry tomatoes
• 0.25 cup (finely chopped) Fresh cilantro
• 1 large (juiced) Lime
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 cloves (minced) Garlic

Directions

Step 1

Wash and pat dry the romaine lettuce leaves. Set them aside to use as wraps.

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic, red onion, red bell pepper, and zucchini. Sauté for 5 minutes until the vegetables are slightly tender.

Step 4

Add cauliflower rice to the skillet along with ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the cauliflower rice is softened and the spices are evenly distributed.

Step 5

Transfer the cooked filling to a bowl and allow it to cool slightly.

Step 6

Assemble the burritos by placing one or two romaine leaves flat on a plate. Spoon a portion of the cauliflower rice mixture into the center of the leaves.

Step 7

Top the filling with sliced avocado, halved cherry tomatoes, and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro.

Step 8

Drizzle the juice of a lime evenly over the fillings for a fresh, zesty flavor.

Step 9

Gently fold the sides of the romaine leaf over the fillings to form a wrap. Serve immediately and enjoy!
