Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place the cauliflower florets onto a baking sheet, and brush with olive oil. Bake in the preheated oven until beginning to brown, about 30 minutes. Set aside.
• While cauliflower is baking, place ground beef and onion into a large pot over medium heat, and cook and stir until the meat is browned, about 10 minutes. Break the meat apart into crumbles as it cooks. Remove from heat.

Remove from heat, and allow to stand covered for 5 to 10 minutes to help dry out the rice.
