I just love this delicious main from the Beachbody Blog – shrimp and rice – YUM!  Quick and easy to make, dinner can be ready in about 30 minutes plus it’s dairy-free and gluten-free.  Best of all, it serves 2.  Eat it for dinner now, and pack away the rest for lunch tomorrow!

Recipe Notes
Cauliflower rice may be found at your favorite grocery store.
To make cauliflower rice, place half a medium head of cauliflower, cut into florets, in food processor; pulse until cauliflower is cut into pieces about the size of rice. Repeat with the other half. Place cauliflower on cheesecloth (or a heavy-duty paper towel), in small batches; squeeze dry.
