Trader Joe’s Fans Praise Its Frozen Mexican-Style Riced Cauliflower Dish
According to the grocer, this item costs $3.79 per bag in stores, and is made with a blend of “cumin, cayenne, and lime and flavored with tomato concentrate.” The Mexican-inspired product also features “diced tomatoes, tri-colored bell peppers (red, yellow, and green), and pickled jalapeños for some good crunch & kick.” On its website, Trader Joe’s notes that it makes a “scrumptious vegan side dish or a bomb-diggity base for a burrito bowl.”
Fans in the thread then shared their favorite ways to eat the popular (and apparently very spicy) riced cauliflower. “I add ground Turkey, black beans, and a zucchini to this,” one wrote as someone else added: “I usually add frozen sweet corn and black beans, and then top with some chopped green onions and avocado, such a quick, tasty, filling meal!”

“Soo good and has a great kick did not expect it to be that spicy but it is a great heat! Delicious TJ!” one user wrote as someone else agreed: “I’ve been eating two bags a week of this. It’s amazing.” (Sounds worth a try to us!)
