Ingredients
- 4 slices bacon
- 1/2 head cauliflower
- 1/2 green pepper
- 1/2 medium onion
- 1/4 cup (30 g) sliced stuffed olives
Method
- Chop the bacon into small bits and start it frying in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat
- Give the skillet a squirt of nonstick cooking spray first
- Chop the cauliflower into bits about 1/2 inch 1 cm
- Chop up the stem, too; no need to waste it
- Put the chopped cauliflower in a microwaveable casserole dish with a lid, add a couple of tablespoons (30 ml) of water, cover, and microwave for 7 minutes on high
- Give the bacon a stir and then dice the pepper and onion
- By now some fat has cooked out of the bacon, and it is starting to brown around the edges
- Add the pepper and onion to the skillet
- Saute until the onion is translucent and the pepper is starting to get soft
- By the time that confluence of events transpires, the cauliflower should be done
- Add it to the skillet without draining and stir-the extra little bit of water is going to help to dissolve the yummy bacon flavor from the bottom of the skillet and carry it through the dish
- Stir in the olives, let the whole thing cook another minute while stirring, and then serve
