Low-carb chili with cauliflower rice, ground beef, pork loin, and smoked sausage, topped with gooey cheese.
Ingredients:
- 0.5 head cauliflower, broken into florets
- 2 teaspoons butter, divided
- 0.5 pound ground beef
- 0.5 pound pork loin, diced
- 1 yellow onion, diced
- 1 green pepper, diced
- 1 (14 ounce) can diced tomatoes
- 0.5 pound smoked sausage, cut into chunks
- 1 (1.25 ounce) package chili seasoning mix
- 2 cups beef stock, or as needed
- 1 dash hot sauce, or to taste
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
- shredded Cheddar cheese, or to taste
Instructions:
- Pulse cauliflower florets in a food processor until rice-sized.
- In a large pot over medium heat, melt 1 teaspoon of butter. Sauté cauliflower "rice" until tender, for about 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
- Brown ground beef in the pot for 5 minutes, then transfer to a bowl. Cook pork loin in the same pot until juices run clear, about 5 minutes, then add to the bowl with the beef.
- Melt the remaining teaspoon of butter in the pot over medium heat, then sauté the onion and green pepper until soft, about 5 minutes.
- Combine tomatoes, ground beef, pork loin, smoked sausage, and chili seasoning in the pot. Add beef stock to achieve desired consistency. Bring chili to a boil, then simmer. Mix in cauliflower "rice."
- Enhance the chili with a touch of hot sauce, salt, and pepper. Garnish with a generous sprinkle of Cheddar cheese before serving.
