Another great substitute recipe using Cauliflower! Cauliflower Jumbalaya

One Pan Meal!

1 Can Diced Tomatoes

1 Onion Diced

1 Green Pepper Diced

2 Ribs of celery, thin sliced

2 Cloves of garlic minced

1 Kielbasa (I will put the legal brand next time I buy it)

Lemon Juice

4 Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs (Season with olive oil, lemon juice, paprika, Cajun seasoning 1 hour to overnight)

Take cookie sheet out and add drained diced tomatoes, onions, bell peppers, celery, minced garlic and mix well.

Lay 2 chicken thighs seasoned in empty spot on cookie sheet.

Roast for another 20 minutes.

Take out and Flip chicken

Bacon on a cookie sheet!

I will never cook bacon strips in a pan again! This method is so easy for every aspect of cooking bacon lol. I always use the lower sodium bacons you find in the regular grocery store. It's never cause me a problem and has the least amount of sugar I hear. Just check the ingredients to make sure no other illegals. Mine does say sugar. SCD Bacon.

Preheat Oven to 425*
Line cookie sheet with foil (easy clean-up)
Lay Bacon strips in one layer covering the cookie sheet.
Bake 15-20 minutes depending on preferred doneness.
Tada!
