Serves 6

Ingredients:

  • 4 links of Mulay’s Mild Italian Paleo Sausages
  • 1 large head of cauliflower, cut into bite size pieces
  • 1 tbsp. of turmeric
  • 1 tbsp. of dried basil
  • 2 tsp of dried parsley
  • 1 tbsp. of ground thyme
  • 2 tsp. of garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp. of olive oil
  • 1 28 oz can of diced tomatoes – drained
  • 4 large garlic cloves, minced
  • 4 cups of chopped kale
  • 3 shallots, chopped
  • 1 tsp of low sodium Worcestershire sauce
  • 2-3 cups of low sodium vegetable broth

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Place the low sodium vegetable broth, the dried parsley, dried basil, turmeric, and the cauliflower in a large pot.

Bring it to a boil and once the cauliflower is easily pierced by a fork, remove from the heat. Drain the liquid from the pot and set the cauliflower aside.

Heat the olive oil in the Dutch oven or in a large pot on medium heat. Add the bite size pieces of sausages, garlic powder, and stir to break up any large pieces. Cook until the sausages are mostly cooked through.

Add the shallots, garlic, thyme, and Worcestershire sauce. Cook until the onions are almost translucent.

Add the tomatoes and bring the pot to a simmer. Cook for 5-6 mins.

Add the kale and stir until fully mixed.

Cook until the kale has wilted a little.

Add the cauliflower to the mixture.

Transfer from a large pot to an oven safe baking dish or place in the Dutch oven into the oven for 20 mins.

Top with parsley flakes or fresh basil and serve.
