After being introduced to Hearts of Palm by Serious Keto on YouTube, I found a recipe that called for the use of Cauliflower rice and they said you could substitute rice of palm if you wanted. However I went a little further and added a few more spices to make it more like a true Mexican rice in my opinion but you can find the original recipe here https://jennnewton.com/the-best-low-carb-keto-mexican-rice/.
