Sausage with Cauliflower and Parsley Rice ...


When Anne Aobadia first published this recipe it caused a bit of a 'lower carb' stir! She described it as Sausage Stroganoff, and people were saying Stroganoff, not according to Wikipedia! However, as Anne went on to say "it is a delicious take on the classic Russian dish beef stroganoff". She teamed it with fluffy cauliflower and parsley rice... gorgeous!  The result being a family favourite that per serving works out at approx. 15g carb. This can alter slightly depending on what sausage you use ... we quite like a Toulouse style or one mixed with chorizo. I wonder which type you may choose ...

Ingredients:
Serves Four
15g carb per serving
1 red bell pepper
2 yellow (white) onions
2 oz. / 55 g butter
1 lb / 450 g fresh sausage, use ones with a lot of flavour such as Toulouse or chorizo (also check carb content)
1 oz. / 28 g sun-dried tomatoes, preferably in olive oil
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 tablespoons dried thyme
1¼ cups / 300 ml heavy (double) whipping cream or sour cream
salt and pepper

Fried cauliflower and parsley rice:
1½ lbs / 700 g cauliflower
4 oz. / 110 g butter
¼ cup / 60 ml chopped fresh parsley
Instructions:
Can be found at Diet Doctor site here

I always think a dish like this goes down a treat around mid-week, but it really is up to you dear reader to choose when you may like to sit and tuck into the flavourful plateful.

All the best Jan

I would use green onions because they have far more nutrition than yellow, red or white that only have sugars. I would also use 2 Roma sliced and diced tomatoes because I don't care for the sun-dried in oil. I also prefer the dark green poblano peppers (California calls them pasilla peppers) again for better nutrition.

I don't use red, yellow or white high sugar onions but instead, use the green onions that have a lot more nutrition beyond sugars. I also use Roma tomatoes diced rather than the sun-dried ones for our taste. I also prefer the dark green poblano peppers for their high Vit A content as well. And we always have cauliflower rice. Other than that, this is a good recipe.
