Bahn mi is a famous Vietnamese sandwich that includes seasoned meat, pickled vegetables, mayo, and a hint of spice that is then served up in a fresh bread roll. This bahn mi rice bowl has all the flavors and goodness of the original but replaces the carb-heavy bread roll with fried cauliflower rice to create a keto-friendly bowl of deliciousness.
Protein is delivered in this recipe through low-fat ground pork flavored with garlic, chili, and an assortment of other spices. You then add the cooked pork to the bowl on top of some fresh spinach along with lightly fried cauliflower rice. The dish is topped off with fragrant cilantro, fish sauce, and creamy mayo.
To give your bowl some extra crunch, add a fresh coleslaw to the side. This is also a great way to boost your vitamin and mineral intake without adding much to the overall calorie count.
