    For the Avocado Sauce: Add all avocado sauce ingredients to a blender, and blend on high until smooth and creamy.

  • Step 5

    To Assemble: In four bowls, divide baby kale or spinach. Layer on the black beans and rice, then add on cauliflower. Drizzle each bowl with the avocado sauce, and top with chopped green onions. Add on some hot sauce or extra black pepper, if you'd like.
