Paella is one of my favorite one-pan meals. It's simple, filling, and bursting with flavor... and I couldn't wait to come up with a Paleo version!
The one thing I don't always love about Paella is that it takes some prep time. So once I got my hands on the frozen riced cauliflower from Trader Joe's, I was even more excited to make this... because it makes it that much easier!
I love the smoky heat in this dish, and how it pairs perfectly with the fresh, bright flavors from the tomatoes, lemon, and fresh herbs. I use a combination of three meats: chicken, chorizo, & shrimp. You could also add mussels, scallops, or any other seafood to keep that traditional Paella vibe.
& If you're not familiar with saffron, don't be intimidated. We bought ours from Whole Foods, and it comes in a small pouch of threads. All you need is one pinch of those threads, stirred into this dish & left to simmer. You'll have an amazing unique flavor & the gorgeous golden color you see in my "rice"!
