One Pan Cheesy Cauliflower Rice with Broccoli and Chicken

I’ve seen plenty of popular cheesy rice with chicken and broccoli recipes on the internet, and decided it was high time to Keto-fy it.

Cheesy Cauliflower Rice with Broccoli and Chicken here we come!

We’ve made this a few times now and it always goes down a treat! When cooking this recipe, it is one of the rare occasions we let our toddler have some cheese, and it’s definitely one of his favorite meals.

Although, he tends to pick out the broccoli first, which always makes me proud haha.
