Ingredients:

1 head cauliflower, trimmed and cut into florets
2 tablespoons coconut oil
1/2 cup onion
3-4 tablespoons basil pesto
2 cups baby spinach
12 ounces italian style chicken sausage, precooked
sweet italian relish, for garnish

Place cauliflower pieces into the work bowl of a food processor (you may have to do this in batches). Pulse until cauliflower pieces are about the size of grains of rice.
In a large skillet, heat the coconut oil over medium-high heat. Add the onions and sauté for 3-4 minutes or until translucent. Add the cauliflower to the skillet. Stir to combine, then reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and let it steam/cook for 5-8 minutes or until the cauliflower is tender.
Meanwhile, slice the sausage into 1/2-inch rounds and heat in a separate skillet. When they are heated through and have a bit of color on them, remove from heat and keep warm.
Stir 3 Tablespoons of pesto and the baby spinach into the cauliflower. Cook until heated through and the spinach is wilted. Taste, adding salt and additional pesto if needed.
Serve the sausage over the cauliflower and top with sweet Italian relish or giardiniera, if desired.
