Cajun Cauliflower Hash

1 1/2 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp dried thyme
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
1 Tbs olive oil
3/4 cup chopped onion
2 cloves garlic, minced 
2 cups diced cauliflower florets 
1 celery stalk, diced 
1 cup frozen hash brown potatoes (not patties)
3/4 cup diced green bell pepper
1 Tbs chopped parsley

1) Combine chili powder, thyme, salt, and pepper in small dish. Set aside.
2) Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic, and sauté 3 to 4 minutes, or until onion is translucent. Add chili powder mixture, and cook 30 seconds.
3) Add cauliflower, celery, and 1/3 cup water. Cover, and cook 4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4) Add potatoes and bell pepper. Cover, and cook 3 to 4 minutes, or until cauliflower is crisp-tender. Add 2 to 3 Tbs water during cooking if mixture becomes dry. Remove from heat. Stir in parsley, and serve.

Review:   I made this for breakfast, and then had it again for lunch!  I doubled the amount of potatoes, in order to make more food.  I also let it brown, which took longer to cook.  After eating this for breakfast, I thought it was silly that this Cajun dish didn't use Cajun seasoning.  Therefore, at lunch I sprinkled Cajun seasoning on it.  Yum!  The dish improved, though it was already yummy.  And, very filling!
