Spicy Sausage and Cauliflower Soup with Sausage Pinwheels

 Ingredients
1 (16 oz.) package spicy pork sausage
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
½ cup all- purpose flour
2 (32 oz.) boxes chicken broth
2 heads cauliflower, trimmed
1 cup half-and-half

Garnish: shredded sharp Cheddar cheese, sliced green onions

In a large Dutch oven, cook sausage over medium-high heat for 5 minutes, or until sausage is browned and crumbles.  Remove sausage and reserve drippings in pan. (Drippings should equal about ¼ cup)  Reduce heat to medium; add vegetable oil.  Add flour, and cook, whisking to remove any lumps.  Add cauliflower, and simmer until tender and begins to fall apart.  Stir in half-and-half.

To serve, top each bowl with desired amount of crumbled sausage.  Garnish with Cheddar cheese and green onion, if desired.  Serve immediately.
