Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups frozen riced cauliflower, thawed and drained
1 cup canned crushed tomatoes
1 cup shredded reduced-fat Mexican-blend cheese, divided
1 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. onion powder
1 lb. raw extra-lean ground beef (at least 95% lean)
2 cups chopped bell peppers
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 1/2 tsp. ground cumin

Preheat oven to 375ºF. Spray an 8" X 8" (or similar size) baking pan with nonstick spray.
