Ingredients
  

  • 10 ounces riced cauliflower, frozen or fresh
  • 4 ounces organic asparagus (thinner stalks), rinsed and trimmed
  • 1 cup grape tomatoes
  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • Salt to season
  • 1 pound medium-size shrimp, peeled, deveined and tail-on, thawed
  • 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
  • ¼ to ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional), depending on preferred spice level
  • 4 ounces crumbled feta
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Heat 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add frozen cauliflower rice, break apart any chunks, and stir occasionally. Cook for about 15 minutes, or until lightly golden, then season with about 1/4 teaspoon of salt.
  2. On a rimmed sheet pan, combine trimmed asparagus and grape tomatoes with 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil. Lightly season with salt. Spread vegetables in a single layer, ensuring they do not touch, and roast in the oven for 5 minutes.
  3. While vegetables roast, combine shrimp, 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, Italian seasoning, and optional red pepper flakes in a large bowl. After 5 minutes, remove the sheet pan from the oven. Place shrimp in a single layer among the vegetables, then return the pan to the oven. Roast for another 5 minutes, until the shrimp turns opaque. After 5 minutes, add crumbled feta to the sheet pan and cook for one more minute.
  4. Remove the pan from the oven and pour the fried cauliflower rice onto the sheet pan. Spread the cauliflower rice across the pan to absorb the pan juices. Drizzle a tablespoon of fresh lemon juice over the finished sheet pan. Serve into bowls and top with desired fresh herbs, such as dill, parsley, or basil.

Notes

Ingredient Swap: I've found that if I don't have asparagus on hand, green beans or even some sliced zucchini roast up beautifully in its place, just keep an eye on
