Shrimp and Sausage Jambalaya w/Cauliflower Rice

I was at Dollar Tree with my son and I came across a box of imitation Zatarain's Jambalaya. At that moment I had an idea to make my own Jambalaya with the bag of Trader Joe’s riced cauliflower I had at home, instead of making my fried rice. This was an absolute hit in my home. So much so that my family all had seconds, leaving me none for my lunch. This was definitely one for the blog.

As with all of my recipes I share, I lay down the foundation so you can add your spin on it. So here you go.
