This comes together fast! Just uses a lot of tools - food processor, skillet, cutting board. Really delicious and easy to make. I would double this recipe next time, as it didn't leave much leftover.

SAUSAGE, PEPPER AND CAULIFLOWER FRIED RICE

• 1/2 cauliflower head, cut into small florets
• 1/2 red bell pepper, sliced
• 1/2 yellow bell pepper, sliced
• 1/2 green bell pepper, sliced
• 1/2 onion, sliced
• 9 ounces smoked sausage, sliced (not ground sausage)
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes 
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder or minced garlic
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
• Salt and fresh cracked pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika, optional
• chopped parsley

DIRECTIONS

1. In a food processor, reduce cauliflower florets to a rice consistency, then nuke for 7 minutes in the microwave with 2 tablespoons water. Set aside.

2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add sausage and cook until browned on both sides, about 5 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

3. In the same skillet with 2 tablespoons olive oil, add the peppers and onion, and saute for 4-5 minutes. Add garlic, Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper, cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add about 1/2 cup of chicken broth and whisk to combine. Allow the mixture to simmer for 1 minute, then add the paprika.

4. Stir in the cooked cauliflower rice and sausage until combined. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper, if necessary. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately. Enjoy!
