Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium, diced onion
- 2 stalks, diced celery
- 1 medium, diced carrot
- 3 cloves, minced garlic
- 12 ounces, crumbled veggie sausage
- 3 cups cauliflower rice (fresh or frozen)
- 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon, minced fresh rosemary
- 1 teaspoon, minced fresh thyme
- 1 large, beaten egg
- 0.25 cup low-sodium vegetable broth
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a medium-sized baking dish with cooking spray or a small amount of olive oil.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the diced onion, celery, and carrot to the skillet, and sauté for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables have softened and the onion is translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the crumbled veggie sausage to the skillet, and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it is browned and heated through.
Add the cauliflower rice to the skillet and cook for another 4-5 minutes, letting it soften and absorb the flavors.
Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the fresh parsley, rosemary, and thyme.
In a small bowl, whisk together the beaten egg and vegetable broth, then pour this mixture over the stuffing in the skillet. Stir well to combine.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Transfer the stuffing mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is lightly browned and the stuffing is set.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve warm and enjoy your low-carb veggie sausage herb stuffing!
