Instructions

Prepare the pickled onions by mixing all the ingredients together and setting aside.
Toast the seeds or nuts in a skillet over medium heat for 3–4 minutes until golden brown.
Sauté garlic in olive oil, then add cauliflower rice and salt; cook for 5–6 minutes. Finish with lime juice and cilantro. Alternatively, heat frozen cauliflower rice in the microwave as instructed on the package.
Season the shrimp with spices and oil, then cook them in the hot skillet for 2–3 minutes per side until they are opaque.
In a bowl, blend all sauce ingredients until smooth using an immersion blender or whisk.
To assemble the bowls, layer cauliflower rice, lettuce or cabbage, shrimp, cherry tomatoes, avocado, pickled onions, pepitas or cashews, and drizzle with sauce as desired.
