    I kept hearing about and seeing ads for those Panera grain bowls, and of course, via their subliminal mind control, I started craving one, lol.

    So, the natural solution was to create a keto, grain-free version of my own. 

    Keto Chicken Enchilada Bowls was my quick to assemble a solution.

    Wanting this to be a quick and easy recipe, I purchased some time-saving items at the store to make prep a breeze.

    Time-Saving Tips

    • I used simple to prepare frozen pre-riced cauliflower from the frozen food section at the grocery store to save preparation time.

    • I also used organic pre-cooked grilled chicken breast strips from the deli section at the grocery store.

    • This lower-carb, gluten-free, Hatch Red Enchilada Sauce is delicious, easy to find, and a real time saver as opposed to making homemade enchilada sauce. 

    But, if you want to make your own low-carb enchilada sauce, this low carb red enchilada sauce recipe is a good one.

    The best part is always the toppings! You can adjust these or omit these to suit your taste.

    The toppings I used:

    • Grated cheeses
    • Sliced black olives
    • sliced jalapenos
    • avocado slices 
    • sour cream

    I love how the cauliflower rice sops up the enchilada sauce and oh the deliciousness of melted cheeses with the creamy avocado and sour cream. Yes, this is a healthy fat meal!

      All these shortcuts are so smart. I never think to make something like this for myself because I assume I'd have to make all the components so they're paleo/gluten-free/keto, but you've made it so simple!

      I love when meals come together in a bowl-- there's just something so much more satisfying about an enchilada this way!
