Heat large skillet over medium-high heat; spray liberally with cooking spray. Add cauliflower; cook and stir 5 minutes or until softened. Stir cauliflower into tomato mixture; cook and stir 2 minutes or until heated through. Makes about 41⁄3 cups.
Prepare rice as label directs on stovetop. Makes about 4 cups.

Chef Tip: To substitute chicken thighs for the cauliflower, in step 1, simmer tomato sauce mixture only 10 minutes; skip step 2. Spray a large skillet with cooking spray and heat over high heat. Spray 1¼ pounds of boneless, skinless chicken thighs with cooking spray; add to skillet and cook 5 minutes or until nicely charred, turning occasionally. Add the chicken to the simmering tomato sauce mixture; cook 10 minutes or until the sauce thickens and internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°.
