Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ¾ cup chopped onion about 1 small onion
  • 2 cups halved and sliced zucchini about 1 small zucchini
  • ¾ cup chopped green bell pepper about 1 pepper
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 13 ounces smoked turkey sausage sliced
  • 12 ounces frozen riced cauliflower about 3 cups
  • 1 cup diced fresh tomatoes
  • ½ cup low sodium chicken broth
  • 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
  • salt and pepper
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
  • Parmesan optional

Instructions

  • Prep and measure all ingredients before continuing with the recipe.
  • Heat oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and saute, stirring frequently, for about 4 minutes. Add zucchini, pepper, and garlic and saute 2 minutes longer. Transfer veggies to a dish. Add sausage to the now empty skillet and cook until starting to brown, turning occasionally, about 3 minutes.
  • Add veggies back to skillet and stir in riced cauliflower, tomatoes, chicken broth, and Italian seasoning. Salt and pepper to taste. Let simmer until cauliflower is softened, about 8-10 minutes.
  • Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley and grated Parmesan. More fresh diced tomato is another great garnish addition. Serve warm and enjoy!
