Step 1

Preheat oven to 425°F and lightly grease a metal baking sheet. Place cauliflower florets and chopped carrots on baking sheet, drizzle evenly with olive oil, and season with sea salt and pepper (roughly 1 teaspoon of each). Roast in oven for 15 minutes, then transfer to large bowl & set aside.

Step 2

Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons non-dairy butter. Add the onions, celery and garlic – sauté for 5 minutes, then add in the sausage. Break up any lumps with a spoon and cook until nicely browned and lightly caramelized, adding in more vegan butter if needed 1 teaspoon at a time. Add in the fresh herbs and pecans, cook for 2 minutes stirring occasionally to toast the pecans. Season with salt and pepper to taste (if needed).

Step 3

Transfer the above to the large bowl with the roasted cauliflower/carrots. In the same pan used to cook the sausage mixture, melt 5 tablespoons non-dairy butter. Add in bone broth and bring to a low boil until butter is fully melted. Remove from heat and add in the bread cubes, sprinkle with garlic salt to taste. Fold in cubes until they are all combined and then cover for 10 minutes. Fluff with a fork, and add to the large bowl with sausage mixture.

Step 4

Transfer mixture to a deep casserole dish so you can reheat it right before serving. To reheat, place in a 400°F oven for 15-20 minutes, until heated throughout.

Enjoy!
